Creamy Rice Pudding

When there’s leftover rice around, we like to turn it into a comforting bowl of creamy, vanilla-y, raisin-y goodness.

You can enjoy this for breakfast or dessert – it’s like a warm hug.


Ingredients

  • 2 cups cooked brown rice
  • 2 cups coconut milk, soy milk, or other plant-based milk
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 2/3 cup raisins
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • Coconut sugar or cinnamon to top your pudding (optional)

Directions

Mix all the ingredients into a medium pot except the maple syrup and cinnamon (if you want them as a topping).

Heat over medium high heat, stirring frequently, for about 15 minutes until it starts to get thick and creamy.

Serve hot or cold. Enjoy!


Inspiration

Today I am practicing doing less.

Stopping.

Healing.

Calming.

Resting.

I wish you a day of freedom, space, and ease. 🙂
