RASPBERRY MANGO SOYA SHAKE

Posted by Carole-Anne on March 5, 2008

This healthy recipe is filled with full rich flavor of mangoes and raspberries; a full size drink will contain 90% of daily vitamin C required, plus 75% beta carotene. 

Raspberries and mangoes contain multiple anti-oxidants.  Blending these fruits with soft tofu will fill you full of multiple powerful immune boosters.  A soy based beverage instead of cow’s milk, will lower your cholesterol and help you build your immune system.

You have the choice of making a milkshake or soft tofu smoothie.  Tofu when blended will provide you with a smoothie, and please note, tofu will take on the taste of any flavor you combine it with.

1 mango diced
