Low Carb Strawberry Mousse

This low carb strawberry mousse recipe is really easy, sweet and yummy! I use mine as a topping in place of whipped cream (especially if I'm out of fresh berries). It's also really great by itself.

Ingredients:
1oz cream cheese (I recommend Philidelphia, generics usually have added sugar. Check to be sure! This can be left out to reduce the carbs more.)

1 pint whipping cream (Heavy cream will also do)

1 pack of sugar free strawberry jello (You could exchange for any jello flavor to change the flavor of the mousse! If you don't want to use sugar free jello then maybe try subbing in some fresh low carb berries.)

Mix all of the ingredients into a bowl and whip until it is a fairly thick consistency. Remember if you're whipping by hand that the goal is to fold air into the mousse. You can eat it right away, but putting in the fridge for a little while will help it firm up. Try serving it with almonds!

This makes 6-8 servings with about 1 carb, depending on what you use.
