My dear friend Lori suggested me to enter into the Fiesta Friday. She is so sweet that she gave me the details and it looks like great fun. I am not gonna wait 🙂 Here is my addition to ‘Fiesta Friday’ Thanks to Angie from NoviceGardener who hosts this party.
I prepared this mousse for my fruits Thursday, it’s already Friday in many places around the world. Here it is still Thursday 🙂 . I am sure by now my blogger friends would know that I love banana and avocado’s. Another fruit of my choice is Pomegranate. All of them are healthy fruits. Recently in my fruits list are raspberry and blueberry. Today I prepared this mixed fruit mousse. I did not want to use Gelatin, as these fruits themselves would give thicker and creamier texture. This can be had as a dessert as well. Let me know your comments 🙂
Ingredients:
Avocado : 1 medium sized
Banana : 1
Pomegranate : 1
Blueberries : 12- 15
Raspberries : 12 – 15
Honey : 1 tablespoon
Dates : 2 pitted
Cashew : 15
Method:
Soak cashew in hot water for 15 mins. Remove the seeds from Pomegranate and put them in a blender, without adding any water, make it juice. In a filter, remove seeds and extract the juice.
Remove the seed from avocado. Put it in a blender with banana, dates, cashew, honey, raspberries, blueberries. Use only the pomegranate juice to grind.
Once done put it in a bowl and refrigerate it for 3 to 4 hours. Then add few pomegranate seeds in top and serve at room temperature.
This looks fantastic Malar! I love pomegranates! We grew up with a pomegranate tree in our yard…always loved eating them! Are you bringing this to Fiesta Friday?

Malar, sounds a great recipe with lot of fruits 🙂 Great about your active participation into the blogging world and joining groups.. very happy to see your posts buzzing with lots of comments, as it indicates how good your posts are… You have mentioned again about removing seeds from pomogrenate in this post 🙂 “Soak cashew in hot water for 15 mins. Remove the seeds from Pomegranate and put them in a blender”

Anna, in pomegranate every seed is covered with red pulp, so removing them from the skin this is what I am trying to say, so its all seeds. You can check in wikipedia 🙂 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pomegranate
