We almost always have leftover rice in our fridge because my boys love rice in the same way I love potatoes. Last week it was kind of chilly…actually I think it rained! and I wanted something warm and comforting but sweet and cinnamony. I took a scoop of the leftover brown basmati rice, put it in a bowl and poured in a little coconut milk on top (enough to almost cover the rice). Then I stirred in some raisins and cinnamon and microwaved the rice for about a minute. Instant rice pudding! It’s almost like a bowl of steel cut oats but the rice has such a nice bite to it. Butter, brown sugar, bananas walnuts would make great additions. Treat it like you would oatmeal!
