A beautiful fall-to-winter dessert that will add the right amount of color and indulgence to your table

A khichuri (or khichdi) is a classic rice and lentil mélange, prepared differently all over India.

Many cyclists have indulged in this dessert, which is a favourite of Lance Armstrong and his friend “College.”

It makes a great entrée with the addition of cooked meat or grilled vegetables.

 You can make these by the truckload, individually wrap them, and store them in the freezer.

Either use chicken that you have cooked and ready or stop by the market for a rotisserie chicken.
