So tasty, easy to make, and easy to adapt! My sons are allergic to soy and cow's milk, as well as coconut, so I had to tweak this--but it was super easy. I just used some goat's milk as a portion of the hot water amount (I think I had about 1/2 to 3/4 cups left in the carton that I used). Then instead of coconut I put in the same amount of dried blueberries. They rehydrated nicely while baking and gave a lovely fruity flavor to the cereal! The nice thing is that the dates (and the blueberries) give this all the sweetness it needs, so there's no need to add all sorts of sugar. I'll be making this again, and I'll probably experiment with other kinds of dried fruits as well.

Good. I didn't have soy milk powder, so I used 1 c vanilla soy milk and 2 c soy water. (I halved the recipe.) I liked that it didn't have any added sugar, other than the fact that my dates were sugar-coated and I used sweetened coconut. It was sweet enought to eat as it without adding sugar or syrup.

This wasn't as delightful as I'd hoped it would be. Tasted a lot like cornmeal mush, and wasn't very sweet. It was good with maple syrup over it, and would be better without the coconut.

This recipe is great for the health-conscious. It is easy and tastes great. Use dates, figs, raisins, whatever you like.

This dish tasted nice, but I found it very unsatisfying and was disappointed in it. The recipe sounded better than it came out.

Millet is such a healthy grain that I enjoyed finding a recipe in which to use it. I loved this recipe. I used about 3/4 c raisins instead of dates because I had raisins on hand. Took some to my neighbor and she loved it too. I love that it has no added sugar, fats, or salt. And I enjoy the one dish preparation that took only 5 minutes. I'd eat this for breakfast, a meal or a dessert!

I have a similar recipe that I make -- only I use rum extract instead of vanilla and add a touch of nutmeg. If you have leftovers, you can add more milk/soymilk and reheat on the stove, mashing with a potato masher to loosen clumps. To really make it easy and rich, you can use eggnog (reg. or soy) when you make it or reheat it! Very good.

I really wanted to like millet, but I can't. The texture is just awful. This recipe may be ok substituted with another grain.
