  • 1/2 cup white sugar
  • 1/4 tsp. salt

  • dash of nutmeg
  • 1/2 cup raisins (optional)

Directions

Sprinkle rice and sugar on the bottom of a 1 1/2 qt. baking dish. Cover with milk and sprinkle with nutmeg. Bake at 350 degrees for 1 1/2 hours stirring twice during baking. Remove from oven and let sit to cool. (this will thicken slightly upon cooling). Serve warm. (good cold too!)
