Preheat the oven to 170°C (340°F).
In a food processor, blend the low-fat graham crackers until fine crumbs form.
Mix the graham cracker crumbs with the almond milk until combined and the mixture is slightly sticky.
Press the mixture into the bottom of a 9-inch (23 cm) springform pan to form an even crust layer.
Bake the crust for about 10 minutes until firm, then let it cool completely.
In a large mixing bowl, beat together the low-fat cream cheese, Greek yogurt, vanilla whey protein powder, granulated sweetener, and vanilla extract until smooth and well combined.
Dissolve the unflavored gelatin in the boiling water, stirring until completely clear and dissolved.
Let the gelatin cool slightly and then slowly incorporate it into the cream cheese mixture, blending until smooth.
Pour the cheesecake filling over the cooled crust and spread evenly.
Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or until the cheesecake is firm and set.
Prepare the sugar-free strawberry jello according to package instructions using the necessary amount of cold water.
Allow the jello to cool slightly, but not set, and then gently pour it over the top of the chilled cheesecake.
Refrigerate the cheesecake again for 2 additional hours or until the jello layer is fully set.
Before serving, optionally garnish with fresh strawberries for a decorative finish.
