Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 300 grams Fresh strawberries
- 200 grams Low-fat Greek yogurt
- 2 tablespoons Honey (or a low-calorie sweetener)
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 100 grams Low-fat whipped topping
- 1 teaspoon Unflavored gelatin powder
- 2 tablespoons Cold water
Instructions
Wash the fresh strawberries thoroughly and hull them by removing the green tops.
Place the strawberries in a blender or food processor and blend until smooth. Strain the puree through a fine sieve to remove seeds if desired.
In a small bowl, sprinkle the unflavored gelatin powder over the cold water. Let it sit for 5 minutes to bloom.
Heat the bloomed gelatin mixture in the microwave for about 10 seconds or until it’s fully dissolved (do not let it boil). Set aside to cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the strawberry puree, low-fat Greek yogurt, honey, and vanilla extract. Stir well until smooth.
Slowly stir the dissolved gelatin into the strawberry mixture, ensuring it’s evenly incorporated.
Gently fold the low-fat whipped topping into the strawberry mixture using a spatula until fully combined and fluffy.
Spoon the mousse into serving glasses or bowls. Cover and chill in the refrigerator for at least 2-3 hours or until fully set.
Optional: Garnish with fresh strawberries or a dollop of whipped topping before serving.
