I like to make what I call “sweet side dishes” in the summer. You know those. They are technically called a salad, but they are so sweet that they can easily be doubled as a dessert. I make a lot of different things, especially when the weather is warmer and they’re perfect for picnics or cooking, especially if you like to make them on top and take them out.
Orange Creamsicle Salad is a Dreamsicle in a bowl and it reminds me of getting dessert from an ice cream truck when I was a kid. It has mini marshmallows and mandarin oranges for garnish and is the easiest orange dessert you can make at home on a hot day.
