Heart Healthy Cinnamon Rice Pudding

Recipe #295019 | 50 min | 20 min prep | SERVES 6 , 3 cups (Change Servings)

RECIPE BY: HokiesLady

I can say this is heart healthy because I found this recipe in the American Heart Associations Healthy Recipes booklet. I love the taste of this pudding! The first time I tried to make rice pudding when I was a teen it came out looking like a form of cement - needless to say I've improved and this recipe is now a favorite.
