@Ricki, It's just another way to get those good-for-you grains in your diet. Hugs, Amy

Sounds great, Amy! I love using my VitaMix for fruit-based frozen treats. The cooked rice addition sounds wonderful.

@Michelle (Health Food Lover), I don't think the rice in particular is the hard freezing culprit. Anything low in sugar and fat will freeze hard, and this isn't churned as it's frozen so it doesn't incorporate a lot of air. Set it out at room temperature for 10 minutes or put it in the refrigerator for 45 minutes before eating. Alternatively, you can break it into smaller pieces and put it a food processor before serving until it's really smooth.

@Ricki, Yes, cook until all the liquid is absorbed. I'd love to know what you think about it.
