 I was not going to do this but with all the messages about sweet things, 
 I just had to post this wonderful recipe that I got at a fatfree Oriental 
 Delights cooking class given by Robert who was one half of Jump Start 
 here in Santa Rosa, Ca.
 
 SWEET RICE AND MANGOS
 
 1 cup 'sweet' rice
 1 ripe mango
 1/2 cup mashed low fat tofu
 2/3 cup water
 1/4 tsp. salt
 2 Tbls. honey
 1 tsp. vanilla
 1 tsp. lemon juice
 1/4 tsp. cinnamon
 1/8 tsp. guar gum to thicken
 
 Rinse the rice and let soak in cold water for 5 to 10 hours.
 Peel and slice the mango
 Mix the last 7 ingredients and blend to a smooth cream.
 
 Drain the rice well and lay in a thin layer on a steamer insert 
 (cheesecloth on top of the insert may be needed if the holes are too 
 large) and cook over steam for about 40 minutes or until soft.
 
 Spoon hot rice into small bowls, top with the chilled mango slices and 
 spoon over the lightly warmed tofu cream.
