Sticky coconut rice with sweet mangos makes a terrific snack/dessert. My recipes this week are the result of a weekend spent playing at our cabin. My sister drove over from NM and met us there with her girls. The kids played and ran around with their cousins and had non-stop fun all weekend; while the adults talked, laughed, played games and only paused to put food in front of everyone. We had a blast hanging out, making our favorite foods and trying a few new ones as well. My sister has been telling me about this dish for a few years now and I was thrilled to finally have a chance to try it. Oh my goodness, this rice is amazing with sweet, creamy spoonfuls of sticky rice and chunks of soft mango.

We made this and served it as dessert, but I’m telling you that the leftovers reheated for breakfast were even better. This rice gives my favorite peach cobbler some competition in the “Desserts for Breakfast” category.
