Ingredients

    orange juice 8-ounces
    I use "not from concentrate" with pulp.

    Frozen organic mangoes, 1/4 package, or 1 cup frozen organic raspberries
    1/4 square tofu, med or firm
    One small banana
    1/2 bottle Odwalla Berries go Mega Superfood
    1/2 fresh nectarine (more to taste)

Directions

Put all ingredients into a blender. Blend to liquify. Add more juice if mixture is too thick -- it should be as thick as a smoothie. Pour blended mixture into plastic popsicle molds or ice cube trays and freeze.
These popsicles provide essential nutrients. Fruit and tofu provide phytochemicals, protein, and liquids for depleted bodies. The cold popsicle can help sooth a sore mouth, which many people undergoing chemo will get mouth sores, and can also help settle an upset stomach.
