Healthy Rice Pudding
"I'm a heart patient and diabetic. I really have to watch my diet. I love rice pudding, so I put together this recipe that doesn't use sugar, eggs, butter or regular salt. I substitute for all these bad things and it seems to work. My wife likes it served to her hot. I like it cold right out of the fridge.
If you like rice pudding, try it. I think you will like it."

A nice rice pudding. Would add a bit more cinnamon and salt for my own personal taste next time. Ate it warm and it was a great reminder of by-gone days and places. Made for Pick A Chef, 2010. Thanks for posting another yummy recipe Danny!
