We had so much left over, cooked rice from our Thai take out, that I found myself searching Pinterest for a easy and quick way to use it. My issue with my eye has me feeling somewhat nauseous, due to medication and blurred vision, so something soothing and comforting like old fashioned rice pudding sounded perfect. This recipe, for the crock pot, was very simple and just required mixing all the ingredients together, putting the mixture in the crock pot and letting it cook on high for only 2 hours. Definitely an easy recipe when you are not feeling well. It tasted wonderful - very creamy and with flavors of cinnamon and nutmeg. I used golden raisins and they were a delicious addition. The original pin and recipe can be found here.
I head back to the ophthamologislat this morning to see if there has been any improvement. That should give an idea for further treatment. I am hoping for good news :-)
Have a great day!

So sorry to hear about your eye. Were you having some sort of problems beforehand or did the pain just come on all of a sudden? Sure hope it heals quickly. I love rice pudding. In the Middle East, the flavor it with rosewater and it is absolutely delicious. Have a great week. Tammy

ReplyDeleteGreat idea, looks yummy! Found you at Share Your Cup Thursday. Hope your eyes are improved soon.
ReplyDeleteRice pudding is pure comfort food. I always think of the book (and movie) Heartburn by Nora Ephron, when rice pudding is served often as a form of comfort. I hope you feel better soon!
