Rice Pudding Benefits
Rice pudding is a great source of carbohydrates, providing energy for the body and supporting essential brain functions. Carbohydrates also play a role in enhancing mood and cognitive performance. Additionally, rice pudding contains calcium, a necessary mineral for maintaining strong bones and teeth. Calcium is vital for bone health and contributes to overall skeletal strength.

Rice pudding is also an excellent source of iron, which helps maintain energy levels and supports a healthy immune system. It’s also a great way to include complex carbohydrates in your diet. These carbohydrates provide sustained energy and are an essential component of a balanced diet.

Rice Pudding Tradition at Christmas Time in Sweden
In Scandinavia, eating rice pudding, also known as "Santa Claus’ porridge," is a cherished Christmas tradition dating back to the 19th century. At that time, ingredients like eggs, milk, and butter were considered luxuries, making this dish a special treat.

Today, rice pudding remains a popular dish in Sweden, often enjoyed as a small meal a few days before or after Christmas. In Sweden, it is frequently served as a dessert with cream and jam. Continuing the tradition, a single almond is often hidden in the pudding, and the person who finds it is said to have good luck in the coming year. Here is my version with added raisins (more Aussie than Swedish). #ricepuddingrecipe #ricepudding #veganricepudding #ricepuddingnodairy #easyricepudding
