This recipe is a summer dessert that was created after several months of thinking about ways to modify some of my other recipes. I love rice pudding, Glorified Rice, and Watergate salad. I was wondering if I could somehow combine the Glorified Rice and Watergate Salad recipes to create a simplified version of rice pudding that would serve as a refreshing dessert for the hot summer months. Aside from cooking the rice, this requires no cooking, so it’s great for days when you don’t want to heat up the house by turning on the stove.
This pudding is very simple to make and makes a delicious dessert for those hot summer days.
Give it a try and let us know what you think.
