Old Fashioned Rice Pudding

 

I thought I had lost this recipe forever and BAM, I found it going through some old cookbooks today.  This recipe for Rice Pudding uses MINUTE RICE! 

4 cups cold milk
1 cup minute rice
1 package vanilla or coconut cream flavor pudding and pie filling (not instant)
1/4 (more or less) raisins (plump with hot water and drain)
1 egg, well beaten
2 tsp. cinnamon
1/4 tsp ground nutmeg

Combine milk, rice, pudding mix, raisins and eggs in medium saucepan.  Brint to full boil over medium heat, stirring constantly. Remove from heat.  Cool 5 minutes, stirring twice.  Pour into individual dessert dishes or serving bowl.  Sprinkle with cinnamon and nutmeg.  Makes 10 servings.  NOTE:  You can make this "fruited" rice, by adding one can of fruit cocktail after cooling process.

There's also a "baked" version of rice pudding recipe using Minute Rice that I used to make years ago ... a recipe I'm still searching for.
