I used medium grain rice and 2% milk, but it still turned out perfect. I used canned pears, which gave it a nice light flavor, but next time will chop them up smaller because it looks unattractive with big chunks. The texture and flavor are perfect. It was delicious fresh out of the oven and even better cold the next day.
