I love rice pudding. I used to love eat leftover rice mixed with a bit of milk, raisins and sugar for a treat after dinner. Ok, so that's not exactly rice pudding, but it's close enough right? And definitely quick and easy. When I was younger though, I tended to load up the sugar. Not exactly healthy, right? How about Cranberry Coconut Rice Cereal?
Now that I'm a "grown up" I still enjoy rice pudding but I need to find a way to make it a little healthier, and a little easier too. It's not like I can just go to the refrigerator and grab the leftover rice that my mom made.
Now there is Minute® Ready to Service Rice. In less than 5 minutes, I can have a delicious breakfast or snack made from one of my favorite staples.
