Creamy Mango Mousse

If your family is anything like mine, you have your summer staple dishes. They tend to be burgers… kebabs… sausages… pizza… basically anything your can do on a grill, or that you don’t have to use the oven for.

Obviously you need a no bake dessert recipe that’s a cinch to make, healthy, and not overly heavy tasting. I have just the ticket.

This mango mousse is my family’s favourite summer dessert. Mousses are lovely, although often have lots of heavy cream. This version is made with yogurt making it a lot lower in fat, but the yogurt stands up well to the sweetness of the mango.

It also comes together in a matter of minutes, the only time consuming part is waiting for it to set. But it is worth it. Promise.
