Strawberry Mousse Pie
This Strawberry Mousse Pie is the perfect cool and creamy no bake pie for the warmer months. This pie has a whipped strawberry mousse with strawberries mixed in makes it the perfect pie .
Spring has sprung in southern Louisiana!! The azalea bushes have flowers on them and there is a thick coat of pollen on everything in sight. When the weather begins warming up I am ready for fruit and no bake desserts. My favorite is strawberry anything, I love some strawberries. I came up with this Strawberry Mousse Pie last year for our Easter gathering at work by using items I had on hand. It was a huge hit and now it’s one of my favorite pies. Believe me, bring this pie to any gathering and it will be gone in no time.

Cannot locate the “simply good” – how would you adapt to “regular” Jello?
I am almost positive it has been discontinued . I changed it on the recipe card to replace it with a regular strawberry jell-o
Debbie~ i’m making it today, but i am having probs w/ the jello completely dissolving w/ only 1/4 C water. will keep you posted how it turns out!
Actually it completely dissolved & turned out super! My son said that it waseven better the next day …
YAY , I am so glad it worked out .
Where can I find how to make premade strawberry glaze?
At our grocery stores it is usually in the fruit section of the store next to the berries . Both our local Wal-Mart and Kroger keeps them there. Smaller stores may have it somewhere else .
