Zero Sugar! Rice Pudding

 Yes!
I've been playing in picmonkey......
And I'm having so much fun with it. 
Why am I playing in picmonkey?
Because picnik has left me....(tears)':
 I ran across this fabulous Web site called Eating Well....Living Thin-er! 
I will for sure be going back!
Her recipes are fabulous!
You better bookmark this site if you are serious about what you eat.
And me!
I need to get a little more serious.
I love this pudding!
It is called rice pudding, but there is not one single grain of rice in it.
WHAT?
Then how can it be rice pudding?
I call it FAKE rice pudding.
TRICKY rice pudding.
INVISIBLE rice pudding.
I'm sure you get the picture.....
But one thing that's for sure.....Definitely will be a staple in my house.
This is great to eat as a snack, breakfast, or dessert.
You pick!
And there is not one ounce of sugar in it.
ZERO! NADDA! NOTHING!
YOU control the sugar (I added a few chocolate covered raisins to my serving).

Rice Pudding

1 (4 serving size) pkg. sugar-free instant cheesecake pudding mix (1/2 c. 25 cal)
1 3/4 c. unsweetened Almond Breeze (1 c. 45 cal)
1 (16 oz.) small curd cottage cheese (1/2 c. 110 cal)
1/2 c. sweetened whipped cream (I used Land O Lakes light cream) (2 TBS 15 cal)
1/2 tsp. vanilla
1/4 tsp. cinnamon
1/8 tsp. nutmeg

In a large bowl whisk together the pudding mix and Almond Breeze until thickened. Fold in the cottage cheese, whipped cream, vanilla, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Cover and chill for at least two hours.
Do the math....less than 200 calories per 1/2 c. serving, and zero sugar.
You can add raisins to each serving if you like.
