off the vegan wagon..sorta kinda

Ok...so I've been doing really well with giving up the seafood in the name of bringing down my cholesterol. However a gal cannot survive on veggies alone. I've been drinking the soymilk in my coffee. No cheese. No eggs. Gave up the half n half. Even though if it was legal I'd pour it on everything. Maybe even bathe in it. But I've been doing well off the dairy. Until tonight. I'm looking in the fridge and my mom bought cozy shack rice pudding. Love it. I have never made rice pudding ever. So I decided to do it in the slow cooker. (For the lazy cook of course) I'm planning on taking a serving for myself..putting some on the side for my mom and taking the rest to work for the ladies. Of course in my mind this is my plan. If its so good I sit in front of the pot and shkoff it all, well that's another story. Or it could come out terrible. I've got another slow cooker with some spinich going on a low and slow heat. I'm sharing my recipe for the rice pudding and will let you know in the morning how it went 3/4 cup long grain white rice 2 cups 1% milk 1 cup water 3/4 cup sugar A sprinkle of cinnamon Pinch of salt 1/2 cup of dried cranberries 3 whole cardomom pods 4 whole cloves a pinch of mace. cook on low overnight. So I'm posting my before pic...and tomorrow ill post what I wake up to. Hope your inspired once again to use that slow cooker.
Off for now!
