Light, creamy, protein-rich and bursting with strawberry flavour… Another one of those HOLY YUM recipes!

If you are looking for a dessert that feels indulgent yet fits perfectly into a balanced lifestyle, this Strawberry Yogurt Jello Protein Mousse is a must-try. It’s soft, fluffy, refreshing, and packed with protein, making it ideal for healthy desserts, post-workout treats, or even a fun high-protein snack. With its beautiful pink colour and creamy texture, this mousse feels like something special while still being incredibly easy to make.

The magic of this recipe comes from combining strawberry-flavoured gelatin with thick yogurt and protein powder. The gelatin helps create that light, airy mousse texture while adding structure, so the dessert sets perfectly in the fridge without needing heavy cream or complicated techniques. Greek yogurt brings natural creaminess, tangy flavour, and a boost of protein, transforming this mousse from a simple sweet into something far more nourishing.

Strawberries are naturally associated with fresh, fruity desserts, and this mousse captures that classic flavour beautifully. Using strawberry gelatin gives the mousse its signature colour and sweetness, while real yogurt balances the flavour so it’s not overly sugary. The addition of protein powder turns this recipe into a satisfying option that helps keep you fuller for longer – perfect if you’re trying to enjoy dessert without the sugar crash.

One of the best parts about this mousse is how versatile it is. You can keep it simple for a quick snack, or dress it up with toppings like fresh strawberries, crushed freeze-dried berries, or a drizzle of melted dark chocolate. It’s also easy to adjust based on your dietary needs – use dairy-free yogurt and plant-based protein powder for a lactose-free version, or choose sugar-free gelatin if you prefer a lower-sugar option.

This Strawberry Yogurt Jello Protein Mousse is also a fantastic make-ahead dessert. Once prepared, it sets in the fridge and stays fresh for several days, making it perfect for meal prep. Portion it into jars or dessert cups for easy grab-and-go servings, or serve it in a larger dish and scoop out fluffy portions whenever you are craving something sweet.

Whether you are looking for a lighter dessert option, a fun high-protein snack, or a creative way to change up your usual yogurt routine, this mousse delivers. It’s creamy, refreshing, and proof that healthy eating can still feel indulgent, colourful, and exciting. ✨
