I had ricotta leftover from another recipe I made recently, and I had a craving for rice pudding. The result: This recipe. Rice pudding is great because it’s one of those desserts that you can convince yourself is healthy when really, it’s not. It sits in a limbo somewhere between sweet oatmeal and Frosted Flakes.
