If you yearn for a slice of rich cheesecake but it doesnt fit into your meal plan, satisfy your craving with a dish of this tangy cream cheese mousse.
In a medium bowl, combine dried egg whites, the water, and vanilla. Beat with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until soft peaks form (tips curl). Gradually beat in sugar until stiff peaks form (tips stand straight). Set aside.
In a blender or food processor, combine tofu, cream cheese, lemon peel, and lemon juice. Cover and blend or process just until smooth. Do not overmix. Gently fold tofu mixture and preserves into egg white mixture. Stir just until combined but some streaks of the egg mixture and preserves remain.
To serve, spoon mousse into 6 dessert dishes. Top with fresh strawberries. If desired, garnish with mint sprigs. Makes 6 servings.
* Instead of dried egg whites, you can use 2 pasteurized egg whites and omit the 1/4 cup water.
Make-Ahead Directions: Prepare as directed through step 2. Cover and chill for up to 2 hours. Serve as directed in step 3.
