If you love strawberries then you’ll love this quick and easy 10-minute strawberry mousse recipe that tastes like all of the strawberry Gods are dancing on your taste buds.
The recipes you can make with strawberries are endless and I don’t know about you, but if strawberries are in season or I see them on special I stock my fridge up with this pretty fruit. But way too often they start going bad quite quickly and I’m left with wasted strawberries which I really don’t like.
When this starts to happen I will make a nice and healthy strawberry jam that our family loves and I pack our smoothies full of strawberries.
Once in a while I decide to make this fresh strawberry mousse as a sneaky treat and I can confidently tell you, it disappears within seconds after I serve it! It’s that good.

As busy mums, most of us don’t have time to spend hours in the kitchen and most of us don’t want to. I feel you can make beautiful, delicious food without spending half a day cooking. Of course, there are times that this is necessary like when you are preparing for a big get together or you’re cooking up a storm for Christmas. But unless it’s a busy time of the year or you’re cooking for an upcoming celebration, easy and quick meals and desserts are definitely the easier to go.
