Puerto Rican Arroz Con Leche (Rice With Milk) image

In Puerto Rico this recipe is simply a rice soup made with milk. Usually made for babies, children, or when someone has a bad stomach. It is a comfort food. In other Latin American countries 'Arroz con leche' might be a dessert made with sugar and cinnamon. Our rice dessert is called Arroz con dulce, made with coconut.
