I saw this amazing dessert on my Facebook wall a few weeks ago and thought Wow I need to give that a go. I wonder how on earth I can make it Trim Healthy Mama compatible ? After a little bit of tweaking and experimenting I made the following version.
Orange Jello
Ingredients- 2 Peach Tea Bags (I used Tetley brand)
- 500 ml boiling water
- Trim Healthy Mama sweetener of your choice. I used a blend of xylitol, erthritol and stevia.
- Optional: 2000mg Vitamin C
- 1 tablespoon gelatin
- 1/4 cup cold water
- 1/4 cup almost boiling water
- Steep the tea bags in the boiling water. Leave it on the bench to cool.
- Soak the Vit C in a little bit of water to soften and dissolve.
- Remove the tea bags once the tea has cooled and add in the vit C. (This is optional)
- Add in enough sweetener to taste.
- In another cup add in a 1/4 cup of cold water and sprinkle in the gelatin. Set aside to soften.
- Add in 1/4 cup of nearly boiling water to the gelatin and stir until well mixed.
- Pour gelatin liquid into the orange mix. Stir till well combined.
- Pour half a cup of liquid into each glass. Lie on it's side and put it into the fridge until firmly set. I used a rectangle plastic container to lay the glasses in.
- Once the jello/jelly has set it's time to make the Luscious Lemon Mousse.
Luscious Lemon Mousse
I tweaked Key Lime Pie recipe from the new Trim Healthy Mama Cookbook on page 326. You will find the balance of the ingredients there. I got the idea for this mousse from Gwen's Luscious Lemon Yogurt Recipe.Ingredients
- 1/3 cup of fresh lemon juice
- 5 ml Lemon oil (I used Simply Organic)
- Dash of Turmeric
- Yellow food dye
Once it is set put some fresh cream on the top and serve.
