This came out PERFECT! I even used vanilla soymilk instead of regular because I'm lactose intolerant and you could not tell the difference! I'm glad I added the lemon for a little extra sweetness, perfect touch. I'm definitely saving this recipe.

This recipe was delicious. I used Cinnamon and added Raisens and wow!

Well, The texture of this is very nice, but the flavor (for our tastes) just isnt there. I would suggest using whole milk for this, and maybe raw sugar... a bit more vanilla and lots of cinnamon. I dont know why but I just feel like it has a flourish taste to it. Overall, we enjoyed it but it just wasnt the rice pudding that we really like. I guess we are more into the custard-style rice pudding.
