I made this yesterday, as I had leftover rice in my fridge, and was looking for a rice dessert to make (my DH just loves rice in any form), it was simply wonderful. I omitted the fruit cocktail, and added more pineapple, cause I didn't have it in my pantry, also I didn't quite have 4 cups of rice, probably 3 cups, if that. Well, we enjoyed it so much, that everything was almost gone all in one night!...it is so delicious, easy to put together, and a very light dessert. I will be making this again. Thank you Erica for a delicious dessert recipe, this is a keeper. :-)

I love desserts with rice and this was one of my favorites. I left out the marshmallows because I am not a marshmallow fan. I definiately will be making this again. The pudding stayed fairly thin-maybe it was the amount of juice I had from the fruit. I used the Delmonte very cherry fruit cocktail. It gave it a nice cherry flavor.

This was really good! It's a great way to use up leftover rice, and so easy. I used 2 cups of rice and 12 oz. Cool Whip, and it was great. Thanks for posting.

I found this really easy and fast to make. I followed the recipe the kids thought it was great. They love marshmellows. It was really light and quite refreshing.. thanks
