Indulge in a healthy turmeric mango mousse with chia seeds. Boost your wellness with antioxidants, fiber, and plant-based goodness. Try it now!
Ingredients
- • ripe mangoes: 2 large, peeled and diced
- • coconut cream: 1 cup
- • chia seeds: 1/4 cup
- • turmeric powder: 1 teaspoon
- • maple syrup: 2 tablespoons
- • fresh lime juice: 1 tablespoon
- • vanilla extract: 1/2 teaspoon
- • pinch of salt
- • mint leaves: for garnish
Instructions
- 1 Begin by preparing the mango puree. Blend the diced mangoes in a blender until smooth and creamy. This should yield about 1 1/2 cups of mango puree. Set aside.
- 2 In a large mixing bowl, combine the coconut cream, turmeric powder, maple syrup, lime juice, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Whisk together until the mixture is well combined and smooth.
- 3 Stir in the mango puree into the coconut cream mixture until fully incorporated. Ensure the turmeric is evenly distributed for that vibrant golden color.
- 4 Gently fold in the chia seeds, ensuring they are evenly dispersed throughout the mixture. This will give the mousse its unique texture and extra nutritional benefits.
- 5 Divide the mixture into four serving glasses or bowls. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to allow the mousse to set and the chia seeds to expand.
- 6 Before serving, garnish each mousse with fresh mint leaves for a pop of color and a refreshing aroma. Enjoy your healthy dessert!
Serving Suggestions
- • Serve this Exotic Turmeric Mango Mousse as a delightful finish to a summer gathering or a refreshing treat on a warm day. Pair it with a side of fresh mixed berries for an added burst of antioxidants and natural sweetness. For a complete healthy dessert experience, consider accompanying this mousse with a chilled herbal tea, such as chamomile or mint, which complements the tropical flavors and adds a calming effect. If you prefer a bit more texture, sprinkle some toasted coconut flakes or chopped nuts on top for an extra crunch. This addition not only enhances the flavor but also boosts the nutritional profile with healthy fats.
Storage Tips
To maintain the freshness and quality of your mousse, store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days. The chia seeds will continue to absorb moisture, creating a thicker texture over time. For best results, avoid freezing the mousse as it may affect the texture and creaminess. If you do need to freeze it, do so in a freezer-safe container and allow ample time for defrosting in the refrigerator before consuming.
