In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the fat-free Greek yogurt, fresh lemon juice, lemon zest, powdered sugar or sugar alternative, and vanilla extract. Stir until all ingredients are thoroughly mixed and smooth.
Gently fold in the low-fat whipped topping to the yogurt mixture. Be careful not to overmix; you want to maintain a light and airy texture.
Taste the mixture and adjust sweetness or lemon flavor by adding a little more sugar substitute or lemon juice, if desired.
Spoon the lemon mousse evenly into four small serving dishes or glasses.
Refrigerate for at least 2 hours to allow the mousse to set and flavors to meld together.
Garnish with a small dollop of whipped topping or a sprinkling of extra lemon zest before serving, if desired.
