Eating Hints for Cancer Patients

Fluffy Fruit Gelatin

1 cup cooked or canned peaches with syrup
1 package red gelatin (3 oz.)
1 cup boiling water

Blend fruit with syrup at high speed until smooth. Pour pureed fruit back into measuring cup and add enough syrup or water to make one cup. Dissolve gelatin in boiling water, pour into a bowl (deep enough to whip gelatin later). Stir in fruit puree. Cool. Refrigerate gelatin mixture until it piles softly, but is not firm. With cold beaters, whip the gelatin until foamy and doubled in volume. Refrigerate until firm. Serves 6.

Other fruits: Use pears, applesauce, or apricots in place of peaches.

Fluffy Fruit Cream: Fold in 1 cup of whipped cream or nondairy whipped toppings after whipping the gelatin. Refrigerate until firm.


* Count as 1 serving of fruit out of daily allowance.
