Rice pudding was BOTH of my grandfather’s favorite dessert. When ever we went out to eat they would order it. I love it too and had it often as a child. Recently I had leftover brown rice. Not enough to make a stir fry or another meal, but the perfect amount for dessert! So, I turned it into rice pudding. Although I made it vegan, I have no doubt my Zadie & Grandpa would be proud. I couldn’t get over how yummy it was!

Ingredients:

• 1 (generous) cup cooked leftover brown rice
• 3 cups unsweetened vanilla almond milk
• ¼ cup raisins
• 3 tbsp maple syrup
• 1 tsp cinnamon
• 1 tsp vanilla extract

Directions:

1. Add all ingredients to a pot.
2. Cook on a low flame for about 45 minutes or until all liquid is absorbed (when cooled it will thicken a little more).
3. ENJOY!
