Kirsten's Congee Recipe

Before going to bed, place 1 cup organic, brown rice, 8 cups of water, and a handful of dried apricots

into a crockpot. Cook on low overnight. If you prefer a smoother consistency, puree congee with a hand blender.

Scoop out your desired amount for the morning, add in an ingredient or two listed below. Save the rest

of the congee in the fridge and reheat a portion each morning for the rest of the week. Viola!

Add-Ins: Black Strap Molasses, Granola (without added sugar), Flax Oil, Cardamom or Cinnamon (only in the last half of your cycle), Almond Slivers (cook in the congee with the apricots the night before)

Dried Cherries or Dried Blueberries
