Made from the cassava plant, which is a staple food source in Africa, tapioca can be found in your grocery store's baking section. Because tapioca doesn't have a lot of flavor on it's own, the other tasty ingredients in this recipe really shine. Ingredients:
2 cups fat-free milk |
1/4 cup quick-cooking tapioca |
3 tablespoons sugar |
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract |
1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg |
1/2 cup clementine juice (about 5 clementines) |
1/2 cup reduced-fat whipped topping |
2 clementines, peeled and sectioned |
Directions:
1. In a small saucepan, combine the milk, tapioca and sugar; let stand for 5 minutes. Cook and stir over medium heat until mixture comes to a full boil. Transfer to a small bowl; stir in vanilla and nutmeg. Cool for 20 minutes. Stir in clementine juice; cover and refrigerate until chilled.
2. Fold in whipped topping. Spoon into four dessert dishes, 2/3 cup in each. Top with clementine segments. Yield: 4 servings.
