I've got a new breakfast on my menu. Best thing about it is it is cheap. Worst thing about it - it is time consuming to make....but i think it is worth it. It is brown rice porridge...take some brown rice and soak it..overnight is good, but at least for a couple of hours. Then I cook the brown rice in my microwave (rinse off the water it soaked in, cover with boiling water with about an inch over the top of the level of the rice and cook for 6 mins on high and then 12 mins on half power). Next I put the rice in a saucepan with a good slosh of my gluten free soy milk...roll on the days when I can have normal milk again (my aim is to re-introduce dairy in December - just in time for Christmas) and a dash of cinnamon and raisins and some small chunks of apple, and about a tablespoon of brown sugar. I then cook this until it is a nice porridge consistency. Sometimes adding more milk if needed. Then I just separate it into daily portions sizes and pop them in the fridge.....
I have been having this on my weekdays and having a bought cereal or gf pancakes/ waffles in the weekends.....we'll see how long it takes until I get sick of this!
