Strawberry Ricotta Yoghurt Mousse ~Blue Ribbon Challenge

I’m just loving the days with the kids at home and the fact that I don’t have to wake them up, get them ready, deal with the crankiness of my 4 year old while making breakfast for my 8 year old. All the chaos that’s part of a school day is now gone replaced by calm serene mornings, where I can enjoy an extra cup of tea and relax! Summer how I love you J

I'm also enjoying the various blog events that I'm a part of beginning with Blue Ribbon Challenge initiated by Anna of Crunchy Creamy Sweet!!A challenge where all of us make the same dish with our own twists and vote for our favorite.This event will be followed by another exciting one on Sunday!Will keep you posted on that too J

I looked all over the web for inspiration for my mousse recipe and incorporated all my favorite flavors to create a healthy Mousse that I'm sure you're going to love J

The light airy texture of the mousse, with the sweet strawberries and creaminess of the Lemony Ricotta and Greek Yoghurt just makes it a delectable indulgence. The fact that its healthy makes it even more enjoyable J
