Simple Rice Pudding
One night at my sister’s house, she made rice in a bag as a side for dinner to enjoy with the main course (grilled salmon). The rice only took 10 minutes to make on the stovetop, which was delicious! I loved the texture of the rice—light and fluffy and felt it would be so easy to make a simple rice pudding, and it was! My Simple Rice Pudding recipe makes a great dessert or snack. The best part is that there’s NO REFINED SUGAR, only fresh fruit (bananas) and dried fruit. Enjoy!
