In the Kitchen - Rice Pudding

I made this quick rice pudding when I wanted something sweet to eat the other night. It's soooo good!

1 cup instant rice
2 1/2 cups milk
1/4 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. cinnamon
1/4 tsp. nutmeg
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 cup raisins (I leave them out)
2 eggs, slightly beaten
1/2 tsp. vanilla

In saucepan, combine rice, 2 cups milk, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, sugar and raisins. Bring to a rolling boil, stirring constantly. Reduce heat; boil slowly 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Mix eggs with remaining milk. Slowly add to hot mixture, stirring vigorously with a fork. Cook over medium heat until thickened. Add vanilla. Let cool 10 minutes. Makes about 6 servings.
Enjoy!

  1. Would cranberries or dried apples work here in place of the raisins?

  2. I think cranberries or dried fruit would work great in the rice pudding. I had never thought of it. Yummy!
