LIVES UP TO THE TITLE.i COOK THE RICE WHEN I AM HAVING RICE FOR A VEGETABLE.I SAVE THE AMT. FOR THE NEXT DAY.USING HALF SUGAR SUBSTITUTE AND LIQUID HONEY,CANNED SKIM MILK FOR HALF OF THE MILK NEEDED LENDS TO A HEALTHIER DESSERT FOR THE WEIGHT CONSCIOUS WITHOUT AFFECTING THE FLAVOR OR TEXTURE.2MIN. I FIND IS NOT LONG ENOUGH FOR THE RAISINS TO PLUMP.I SIMMER THEM IN THE MILK FROM THE BEGINNING.GOOD FOR ANY TYPE MEAL,FANCY OR CASUAL.

Creamy Chocolate Pudding

Reviewed: Feb. 15, 2006

Quick to make and easy too.Make when everything else is planned.Needs close watching and frequent stirring.use a wisk to prevent lumps.Cook on lowest temperture or use a double boiler to prevent scortching.I used sugar replacement and low fat cool whip.Healthier version

Streusel Apple Coffeecake

Reviewed: Feb. 9, 2006

An excellent dessert or for coffee time.Ireduced the brown sugar by1/3 and replaced it with brown sugar substitute.Granny Smith wasn't there today so I used Macs.A little too moist for the bottom layer. For best time use I suggest prepping your apples and the streusel mix ahead of time.Took me longer than 30min. to do for the first time.An excellent choice for a winter's day. I will make again.
