Recipe for Millet-Rice Morning Pudding

Breakfast Chewy, Sweet, and Nutritious

This gluten-free breakfast entrée is reminiscent of rice pudding. The health benefits are greatly increased by the addition of millet, an easily digested seed-grain that is high in mineral content. Millet can be fluffy like rice or creamy like mashed potatoes, and this recipe takes advantage of both. This dish is quick and easy to put together if you keep cooked grains stored in your freezer in 1-cup amounts. Simply mix it up before going to bed, set your oven to timed bake, and awake to the lovely aroma of a warm breakfast!
