We have an indecisive sweet tooth. We hold the same passion for desserts that are ridiculously fussy and complicated, as we do for ones that involve a single bowl and whisk that can be whipped up in a jiffy. This recipe combines the best of both worlds and creates a dessert that sounds ridiculously fussy, but can be made mainly from basic pantry staples. They're dense, delicious and ridiculously easy to make!

I needed a recipe that would use a bunch of veggies harvested from my garden, so I came up with this refreshing orzo salad that is both colorful and crunchy. A very refreshing vegetarian salad for those hot summer days.
Canned beans are a quick, no-cook protein option that readily absorbs the flavors of fresh herbs and roasted red peppers. Roast your own peppers or look for them in jars on grocery shelves near olives and pickles. Serve this hearty salad with whole wheat crackers, if desired.
