Red rice, coconut pudding

Something a bit different for breakfast. Sometimes we can get stuck having the same thing every morning so it's nice to mix it up. This is a nice creamy, coconuty and filling rice dish that doesn't leave you feeling heavy. Red rice is very high in fibre and complex carbohydrates making you feel fuller, faster. It is a great source of iron and manganese and antioxidants. Just 1 serving of red rice can provide 23% of your daily B6 vitamin which balances the formation of serotonin, red blood cells and helps the production of DNA cells. Some nice plant power to start your day. Soak the rice overnight to make it more digestible.

Serves 2

Ingredients:
1c Organic Red or Black Rice
1c Organic coconut cream
1c water
2 tbs liquid sweetener (I used maple syrup)
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp raw cacao (optional) 
Fruit to serve

Soak rice overnight.

In the morning, rinse and drain rice. 

In a saucepan, put all the ingredients apart from the fruit. Bring to the boil then turn temperature down and simmer, covered, for around 15-20 minutes. Stir every few minutes while it is cooking. Take off the heat and let cool slightly.

Serve with fruit of your choice.
