Pumpkin Rice Pudding - gluten free and vegan

Vegan Rice pudding in a glass mug


Looking for an easy, yet elegant dessert?
This creamy pumpkin rice pudding is simple to make and still tastes sensational!  What a treat for Thanksgiving or Christmas. If you like the taste of pumpkin and you like rice pudding, you'll love this perfect combination. The ingredients are healthy, and the recipe is as easy as just making rice.  In addition, it is allergy friendly as it has no eggs and can be made with coconut milk. I love that the recipe meets gluten free, vegetarian, and vegan standards.

I was intrigued with the idea of adding pumpkin puree to this already creamy dessert, and I wasn't disappointed.

I would have loved to have topped it with whipped cream or coconut cream, but whipped cream is my greatest weakness and just having some in the house , well I would have eaten it all. So if Mama isn't eating it with whipped cream, no one in my house is eating it with whipped cream!

I hope you enjoy it.. let me know

My notes: This is a recipe for those who are accustomed to eating food that is less sweet. If you are a sugar person who wants a really sweet rice pudding, well then adding real sugar will make it so. Personally, I look for less addicting lower carb alternatives like coconut crystals, or a sweetener with some nutritional value like honey or real maple syrup ( and then in small amounts). You decide- you know your taste buds and eating habits.

What is Pterygium and Pinguecula ?

[Extracted from the webpage of www.healthscout.com] A pterygium is a fleshy growth that invades the cornea (the clear front window of the eye). It is an abnormal process in which the conjunctiva (a membrane that covers the white of the eye) grows into the cornea. A pinguecula is a yellowish patch or bump on the white of the eye, most often on the side closest to the nose. It is not a tumor but an alteration of normal tissue resulting in a deposit of protein and fat. Unlike a pterygium, a pinguecula does not actually grow onto the cornea. A pinguecula may also be a response to chronic eye irritation or sunlight. Although pterygium and pinguecula sound like mysterious, arcane diseases, they are actually quite common, usually benign eye conditions. These lesions appear as a whitish-yellowish bump or fleshy "growth" on the exposed conjunctiva. If the bump appears only on the white part of the eye, it is called a pinguecula. If it appears to "grow" onto t...

Meatloaf on My Mind...

Lately, I've been thinking about meatloaf. Warm, comforting...home. Good meatloaf is one of those dishes that  brings back fond memories, and bad meatloaf is shudder-worthy at best.When made with care, meatloaf is a clean, wholesome food. A host of "traditional" meatloaf recipes use things like barbeque sauce or A1 for flavor - very low on the Clean spectrum of things. When I saw these three ( essentially ) clean meatloaves in this month's issue of Women's Day Magazine, I knew I'd be posting them. I can't wait to try them. If you do, please post and let me know how you liked it! Lamb, Balsamic & Sundried Tomato Meat Loaf Whether you use lamb or substitute it with beef, this recipe is a refreshing take on the usual, with sweet sundried tomatoes balanced out by heady rosemary. Serve it with couscous for a real Mediterranean feast. Active Time: 15 minutes Total Time: 1 hour 5 minutes Recipe Ingredients 1 lemon 2 large eggs 2 T bsp balsamic vinegar K...

Homemade Almond Milk ( Fast and Easy )

Making homemade almond milk is truly fast and easy. In fact, I made my very first batch of this creamy treat last week for the first time. It involved using only two ingredients: almonds and water, and had only four simple steps: soak, blend, strain, drink. After soaking, the entire process took me only 10-15 minutes. It was fun and tasted amazing! I'm sold on only making my own because store bought almond milk is stored in containers that are lined with plastic and plastic leaches estrogens into the food. And many brands add chemicals. My homemade drink tastes just as good if not better and I store it in glass. I've stopped buying plastic water bottles last year, but I didn't realize that cans and cardboard containers are lined with plastic as well. The convenience of buying containers of almond milk ( along with organic veg soup broth, canned beans, coconut milk) is exposing me to a continuous flow of estrogens which is linked to not only breast cancer but weight gain!...
