Coconut and Cardamom Rice Pudding
Rice pudding, for me, is the
ultimate comfort food. This
version is made with coconut milk
so it is dairy-free but just as
creamy and delicious as regular
rice pudding. I’ve also made it
with a mix of brown rice and
quinoa to up the protein and fibre
content. It tastes great on its own,
but to make it even more
decadent, you could add some
quick berry compote that you can
find on page 167 of Little Veggie
Eats.
