How to Make Rockin Rice Pudding

  1. In a medium saucepan, combine 2 cups cooked rice, 2 cups milk (whole milk recommended), 1/2 cup sugar, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Cook over medium heat for 25 minutes, stirring occasionally, until most of the liquid is absorbed and the pudding thickens.
  2. Remove from heat and stir in 1 tablespoon lemon zest and 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon.
  3. Spoon the rice pudding into individual serving dishes or a large bowl.
  4. Sprinkle with the remaining 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon before serving. Enjoy warm or chilled!
