Lusciously Light

Looking for a lighter, weeknight dessert that isn’t over-the-top? This delicious dessert is just the thing. With hearty white rice, low-fat frozen yogurt and fruit, it’s a satisfying, delicious treat.

This rice pudding is great for dessert or, if you prefer, you can make it into a hearty snack or on-the-go breakfast. Simply swap in greek yogurt for the frozen yogurt to add a touch of protein and make this a more energizing and filling breakfast.

The beauty of this dessert is that you can even use leftover rice from another recipe. Or, if you know you’ll be making this, make a bit more than you need for another recipe and save some to make into a rice pudding.

Fruity Tips

When choosing just the right bananas, use some that are slightly more brown as they will have a sweeter taste when mashed. If you’re not a fan of kiwi or banana, feel free to swap in other fruit, such as berries, mango, pineapple or grapes. You can also add chopped nuts or chocolate on top, to add more flavor and texture.
