I am going to be honest, I don\u2019t have time to cook eloquent meals and most of my eating happens on the go. I like to think that I eat healthy and get a fair amount of exercise, but when you work hard, treating yourself to delicious desserts can be easily rationalized.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Aside from being a novice in the kitchen, most of the dishes I am familiar with are based on the Mexican traditions. For a good portion of theses meals there is a lot of time involved and the preparation is done primarily on top of the stove. I was only recently introduced to the world of no bake cooking. I was surprised to discover that many of the recipes only require a handful of ingredients and are super quick to make.
