Vanilla Coconut Rice Pudding

I usually end up making too much rice whenever I cook it. I usually make a simple snack of the leftovers by adding some salted butter, or throwing it into Monday night stir-fry when I use up any leftover veggies or whatnot. However, this time I decided to try something different. I wanted to make some rice pudding, but I had no cream or whole milk, and didn't feel like stirring over a pot forever. So I whipped up this simple coconut rice pudding. It uses leftover rice, 2% milk (though whole would be fantastic), and some fresh vanilla because, well, I love vanilla. If you have some coconut flakes, I would highly suggest you garnish with them. Simple and easy, it's a nice little way to use up that extra rice. Vanilla Coconut Rice Pudding Ingredients: 2 cups of whole or 2% milk 1 vanilla bean, insides scraped out 1 1/2 cups of coconut milk pinch of salt 1 1/2 cups of cold cooked rice 1/3 cup of sugar Directions: Combine all the ingredients together in a saucepan and simmer over me...

Creamy Peach Pie

This creamy peach pie is SO light and fluffy. It really is the perfect low-cal dessert for summer. You could even chop up fresh peaches and put them in the pie for extra-peachy flavor! Creamy Peach Pie Ingredients: 1/4 cup water 1 0.3-oz package of sugar free peach Jell-o* 2 6-oz containers of peach yogurt (I used Yoplait Light) 1 8-oz tub fat free cool whip, thawed 1 pre-made graham cracker crust Directions: In a microwave-safe measuring cup, heat water for 45-90 seconds or until boiling. Whisk in Jell-o until dissolved. In a large bowl, whisk together Jell-o mixture and yogurt. Fold in whipped topping. Carefully spread in crust. Refrigerate at least 4 hours or until set. Garnish as desired - I topped mine with frozen peaches and whipped cream. Store in refrigerator. *I have never made this recipe using any other kind of Jell-o except for sugar free. I am not sure if it would work with regular Jell-o because the size of the packages are so much different.
