Quinoa Pudding
Quinoa Pudding
I love trying new desserts, especially when they are even remotely healthy. I heard a news story this week about arsenic levels in rice. I really enjoy rice and cook it often.
I am a HUGE fan of Lundberg Family Farms rice. In full disclosure, I have won a few free items from Lundberg, but this is because I love their products and watch their website closely. Lundberg has created a section of their website devoted to answering consumer questions regarding this issue. I suggest you check it out if you have questions regarding the safety of rice.
Today, I am making a recipe where rice is traditionally used, but giving it a new twist. If rice pudding is good, quinoa pudding must be better, right? So here is the recipe! You will notice the photos feature a caramel sauce on the pudding; I will post this recipe later in the week!
Quinoa Pudding
adapted from honestfare.com
3 c skim milk
2 t vanilla extract
1/4 c sugar
pinch of salt
1/4 c water
1/4 t cinnamon
1 c quinoa, well rinsed
Combine milk, vanilla, sugar, salt, water and cinnamon in a covered saucepan. Bring to a boil and add the quinoa.
Reduce the heat to medium-low and cook the quinoa in a semi-covered pan (just a little bit vented) for 30 minutes.
Cool and pour into parfait or other glasses. Makes four servings.
This is a yummy, warm treat for a fall day.
