Skip to Recipe As we are transitioning towards spring, we are dreaming of the warmer weather, brighter days and lots of sunshine. Lemon is just one of those flavors that’s screams spring. That pop of citrus brings in the brightness and sunshine that we crave for after a long dreadful winter. Lemon Curd Mousse is a lighter twist on the popular Chocolate Mousse and is perfect for the warmer months of spring and summer. Layers of graham crackers, tart lemon curd and fluffy whipped cream are combined to create a decadent no-bake dessert that is ready in no time ! One spoonful of this lemon curd mousse and you’ll be totally hooked.

Food enthusiasts are now seeking to experiment with new cuisines and are turning to international flavors for new food experience. Hummus, a delicious, creamy dip, has been enjoyed for centuries by the Middle Eastern countries. However it wasn’t until the 1980s and 1990s that it began to gain popularity in Europe and North America. Today, it has made its way to the local supermarkets and it enjoyed by people all over the world. Though it is convenient to buy a container from the store, it usually lacks the authentic flavor and is pretty expensive. So if you want real-deal hummus, it is worth making it at home. WHAT IS HUMMUS? Hummus is essentially a Middle Eastern spread or dip that is known for its rich flavors and smooth, creamy texture. It is made by blending chickpeas with a hint of tahini,...
