Rice Pudding

For a few days after going gluten free, I ate rice pudding to fill the huge void left by cereal, but as I've decided to cut out dairy I can no longer eat this. Is it possible to make rice pudding with soy milk, or any other dairy-free alternative?

I'm sure it's possible :)

I make regular pudding with almond milk--but I use Jello pudding mix. The trick to that is using less of the alternate milk--they don't thicken the same as milk does.

I would try just substituting for the milk, using about 1/2 cup less of the alternative and go from there. It took a few trial and errors, but even if the pudding comes out too thin, it still tastes good.

I just happened to come across a recipe for this:

Coconut Milk Rice Pudding

Ingredients:

1 16 oz can of Coconut milk

2 cups of cooked rice (brown or white)

sweetener, your choice, enough to sweeten the milk

1 teaspoon of vanilla extract

optional:

vanilla soy milk, to pour on top the bowls of pudding

1/2 cup of coconut, to add to the recipe for variation

Directions:

Heat the coconut milk in a heavy saucepot, over medium heat, until it comes to a simmer. Add sweetener and stir until dissolved. Add the cooked rice and heat through. Simmer until it thickens but don't allow it to become too dry, the rice will continue to absorb the milk as it cools. Take off the heat and stir in the vanilla. Serve warm or chilled.

** We love to eat this warm for breakfast or chilled for dessert. If it becomes too dry just serve with some vanilla soy milk poured on the top.

** Sometimes I add about 1/2 a cup of grated coconut to the recipe as I'm heating up the milk and the sweetener.

Preparation time: 15 minutes

Or you can try something like this:

Tropical Breakfast Risotto

Prep and Cook Time: 30 minutes

Ingredients:

1 cup Arborio rice (this is the Italian rice risotto is made with)

2 cups water

1 15oz can coconut milk

1 8oz can cubed pineapple (save juice)

Mango always has such wonderful ideas. Rice pudding with vanilla soy milk sounds like it would be great.

I think this diet will make a good cook out of me. I'm actually quite excited about having to forsake many of the processed and pre-prepared foods that I used to eat and having to create decent meals myself. I never would have bothered making my own rice pudding if it wasn't for going gluten (and this case dairy) free.

YES!!! I have the best recipe for rice pudding. I found it when dx w/ IBS...before dx w/ celiac

It's so great! here's the link to the recipe. They have a lot of great recipes here. I made it w/out the tummy fiber stuff, and w/out raisins. It truly is dreamy!! Mmm, I could use a batch myself, now that I think about it. I 1/4thed the recipe tho, cuz I was just making it for me. It's good even a couple days in the fridge, and is yummy hot or cold!

I've used almond milk and coconut milk for making puddings. I am gluten free/dairy free/soy-protein free...

Anyhow, I was wondering what kinds of cereal you used to eat, because there are gluten free choices out there that you might be able to have so you don't have to eat the rice pudding everyday. If you let us know what you used to like, maybe we can all suggest good gluten-free cereals for you.

Okay, I didn't realise my son was logged in and I accidentally posted the message under his username (Teku). Sorry. It was me actually.

I'm intrigued by these recipes, as I'm also dairy and soy free--and I *love* rice pudding!

Question--what brands of coconut milk do you all use that is gluten-free and dairy free?

I used to eat many types of cereal, changing them frequently. I know that there are gluten-free alternatives, but the selection was very limited in the supermarkets I have checked so far, and they were very small boxes for quite high prices. I have seen some great cinnamon/apple cereals from the gluten-free online stores, but I don't really want to order food that way.

Thanks for the recipes, everyone.

      Your high lactulose test, indicating out of control Small Itenstinal Bacterial O,vergrowth is one symptom.  You likely have low vitamin D, another symptom.  Unless you get lots of sun.   Celiac Disease is a disease of malabsorption, often leading to subclinical vitamin deficiencies.  A lot of people have these symptoms just before an acute phase of Celiac Disease.  Each of the symptoms can have multiple causes that are not celiac disease,  but when you start having multiple symptoms,  and each symptom is treated as a separate disease,  you have to think, maybe these are all one cause. celiac disease. There is a misconception that Celiac Disease is  a gastrointestinal disease and symptoms are only gastro related.  Wrong.  It is an autoimmune disease and has many symptoms that usually are disregarded.  I made that mistake until 63 y.o.  It can cause a dermatitis herpetiformis rash,  white spots on the brain.  It caused my alcoholism, arthritis, congested sineses, protein spots on my contacts lenses, swollen prostate, symptoms that are "part of aging". You may be tolerating gluten, the damage will happen. Of curiosity though, your age, sex, are you outside a lot without sunscreen?

      It would be interesting to see if you were tested again for blood antibodies after abandoning the gluten free diet for several weeks to a few months what the results would be. Don't misunderstand me. I'm not necessarily suggesting you do this but it is an option to think about. I guess I'm saying there is a question in my mind as to whether you actually ever had celiac disease. As I said above, the blood antibody testing can yield false positives. And it is also true that celiac-like symptoms can be produced by other medical conditions.

      Welcome to the forum, @numike! We sometimes get reports like yours from community members who believe their celiac disease has "gone away." We think there can sometimes be cases of remission but not long term healing and that continued consumption of gluten will eventually result in a relapse. This is the state of our knowledge at this point but there is still a lot we don't know and celiac disease continues to surprise us with new findings on a frequent basis. So, we would not advise you to abandon a strict gluten-free diet. Perhaps you can draw consolation from the fact that at the present time you seem to be able to consume gluten without consequences when in situations where you do not have the option to eat gluten-free. But I would advise you to not generalize your recent experience such that you throw caution to the wind. But I want to go back to what you said about being diagnosed by blood test in the early 2000's. Did you not also have that confirmed with an endoscopy and biopsy of the small bowel lining? Normally, a celiac disease diagnosis is not concluded based on a blood test alone because there can be false positives. What kind of doctor did this testing? Was it done in the U.S. or overseas? In the last few years, it has become common in the U.K. to grant a celiac diagnosis from blood testing alone if the antibody test scores are 10x normal or greater. But that practice has not caught on in the U.S. yet and was not in place internationally in the early 2000's. Do you have a record of the tests that were done, the scores and also the reference ranges for negative vs. positive for the tests?
