FAQ
Can I make this mousse in advance?
Yes, it can be prepared a day ahead. Just cover tightly and keep chilled until serving.
Is this recipe suitable for a low-carb diet?
Absolutely. It’s high in healthy fats and low in carbs, especially when served on cucumber slices or lettuce leaves.
Can I use frozen avocado?
Fresh avocado is preferred for the best texture and flavor, but thawed frozen avocado can work in a pinch.
What if I don’t have a food processor?
You can mash the ingredients by hand with a fork and whisk. It won’t be as smooth but will still taste great.
