Rice Pudding

[Rockett]

Does anyone have a recipe for rice pudding suitable for a 10 month old?
Thanks :)

This is a very easy rice pudding:

1 cup cooked rice
1 cup milk warmed
few drops of vanilla flavouring essence
1 tablespoon sugar

1. Combine all ingredients
2. Cook very gently for 10 minutes until rice is heated through.

It says it is 2-4 baby serves

This is from 'Robin Barker's' - "Baby & Toddler Meals"- Great book!

Hope bubs likes :)

Ahh, thats a good one! I didn't want to make a huge serve as no-one else eats it, not even DD1! Thanks jennasmum!

[Rockett]

Thanks heaps Jennasmum!! :)

I've heard a lot of good things about that book,I think I will have to invest in one.:)

Do you know if that can be frozen (say if bubs doesn't eat it all after a couple of days?)

[Jenko]

Shelly68 I don't think you can freeze it.

In the book I got it from a recipe usually has a note to say 'suitable for freezing'.

But this recipe doesn't have that notation.

Maybe it's the milk in it??

I made this for my DD when she was younger and she wouldn't eat it. So I did!! :p It's yummy! :)

Thanks Jennasmum,

That's generally what I used to do with the kids.

1 spoon for them, 1 spoon for me

1 spoon for them, 2 spoons for me, lol

Well, it's not rice pudding but a similar concept!

Sweet Couscous

makes about 1/3 cup

1 cup (250ml) milk
1 Tbs couscous
1 tsp white sugar
pinch ground cinnamon

Combine ingredients in a small sauceopan and bring to the boil

Reduce heat, simmer, stirring about 10 minutes until mixture thickens

Sounds alright!
