Guest guest Posted December 10, 2007 Report Share Posted December 10, 2007 what a great idea! I have some I might do this with today. Wonder if the squirrels leave it alone. I made this, this morning: custard rice pudding INGREDIENTS: * 1/2 cup plain cooked rice * 3 eggs, beaten * 1/2 cup sugar * 1/4 teaspoon salt * 1 teaspoon vanilla extract * 1 teaspoon grated lemon rind * 1/2 cup raisins * 3 1/2 cups milk * ground nutmeg, freshly ground if possible PREPARATION: In a large mixing bowl, mix all ingredients except nutmeg. Pour mixture into a lightly buttered shallow baking dish and sprinkle with nutmeg. Place baking dish in a pan of hot water in oven and bake at 300° for about 1 1/2 hours, or until set. A clean knife inserted into the center should come out with nothing clinging to it. Serve warm or chilled with whipped cream or whipped topping, if desired. It is ok, but not what I really wanted. I wanted something along the lines of what a restaurant I used to work in made. Will keep looking. **************************************Check out AOL's list of 2007's hottest products.

Maybe the rice would keep them off my bird feeders. I did buy DH a corn feeder for squirrels for Christmas, so they aren't completely shunned. ;-p Amy **************************************See AOL's top rated recipes (http://food.aol.com/top-rated-recipes?NCID=aoltop00030000000004) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 10, 2007 Report Share Posted December 10, 2007 when I had leftover rice or pasta I feed it to the birds. Very important that the rice is cooked or it could kill the birds. I love when they eat leftover spaghetti, it hands from their beaks and looks like worms. LOL! It gives them good carbs for the cold. hugs, Chanda - thelilacflower Vegetarian Group Monday, December 10, 2007 1:01 AM Re: Recipe Request - Leftover cooked boiled rice? Ues, it sure does make the best fried rice. Donna Sent via BlackBerry from T-Mobile " Penny French " <penny368 Mon, 10 Dec 2007 07:06:36 To: Re: Recipe Request - Leftover cooked boiled rice? I've always been told that the best fried rice comes from cold rice. Never happens at my house, but that's what an online cooking course said. ---- Jenniper Parry 12/9/2007 11:13:30 PM @ <%40> Re: Recipe Request - Leftover cooked boiled rice? Ideas...

Guest guest Posted December 10, 2007 Report Share Posted December 10, 2007 Oh thanks Val, I was really unsure of this, have never frozen cooked boiled rice and was scared to have a go, but this solves my immediate problem, and will be fantastic when I just want a portion of rice for my meal when I come home from work (as I live with a pescatarian and an omnivore, I always cook just for myself) thanks a million!
