Most mousse recipes call for eggs and heavy whipping cream. But if you’re sensitive to dairy or simply cutting back on your consumption of animal products, those ingredients can be problematic. Fret not! Silken tofu and coconut cream come to your tummy’s rescue in this easy, four-ingredient strawberry mousse recipe. In addition to creating a light, airy texture, the tofu gives you protein and iron without adding any cholesterol or sodium. Also, freeze-dried fruit is used instead of fresh or frozen to prevent the mixture from getting watered down. In the end, you get a silky-smooth, better-for-you dessert that’s sure to make your taste buds rejoice.
