This was a really nice change of pace for rice pudding. The combination of marshmallows, cranberries and coconut added a sweetness that sugar alone would not have produced. I would definitely make this again though I think I’d leave out the pretzels (as I prefer a rice pudding without “crunch�, and maybe try brown sugar instead of regular granulated sugar, just to see if it paired better with the brown rice). But all in all, I thought this was a great contest entry.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
I am an Israeli-Canadian who grew up in Montreal Quebec. I love to cook, especially for family and friends, and I love to experiment with recipes and try to do different variations of the same recipe. I did do part of cooking school, but found the place stressful and all the good recipes high in fat and calories, even the good ones. I don't have a fave cookbook, but I eat kosher. I have a dream and that is to own my own B&B one of these days. I also love creative writing, and maybe I like to try make up a recipe of my own and see if I'm good at doing that.
I have to add that I do have some favourite chefs from the Food Network. They are Giada De Laurentis from Everyday Italian; Micheal Smith from Chef at Home; Jamie Oliver and everything he does; Anna Olson from Sugar; and Chef Gordon Ramsey from Hells' Kitchen and Ramsey's Kitchen Nightmares.
