Dietician's Tip

Corn pudding tastes great with just about anything grilled. This side dish also satisfies your sweet tooth — no need to make dessert.

Ingredients

  • 3 cups water
  • 3 cups skim milk
  • 2 cups coarse cornmeal (or polenta)
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup
  • 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/8 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 1/8 teaspoon clove
  • 1/8 teaspoon ginger
  • 1/2 cup raisins

Directions

In a saucepan, bring water and milk to a boil. Add cornmeal and stir to remove lumps. Bring back to a boil. Then turn heat to low and cover, stirring occasionally for 10 to 15 minutes.
