Creole Rice PuddingNEVER throw day-old rice away! Next time you have that extra-large Chinese take out and you have some of that white rice left over, you have the base of a fabulous rice pudding, New Orleans-style!

“Bear Sign” (Or… a more polite name: “Nut & Berry Shortbread Bars”)During the off-season, when salmon aren’t readily available up north, Alaskan bears eat mainly nuts and berries.
