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...

Walking Through The Fancy Animal Carnival In NYC

I went to visit my kids in NYC last week and on my walk from the train to their place I passed through the famous Garment District- It was raining, but I managed to get a few photos of some of the new sculptures in the " Fancy Animal Carnival " by Taiwanese artist Hung Yi. I don't usually share my outings, but with so many visiting NYC over the holidays, I thought these might be of interest. Garment District Free Art Show through April 2016 The Carnival , which starts around 41st street and ends on 37th street, features eleven large to life whimsical statues each symbolic of bringing luck!  The statues are extremely colorful and big!! It made more 40 minute walk to their place very enjoyable Bryant Park- over 100 fun holiday kiosks I loved this.. In addition, there were many little kiosk type shops that opened up just for the holidays in Bryant Park on West 40th between 5th and 6th Ave- It was so much fun going around the wintery type wonderland with all the little shops ...
