I made this with goji berries, unsweetened vanilla almond milk, splenda, and non fat plain greek yogurt. However, despite all the modifications this dish was still amazing:

The couscous is a nice alternative to rice, and cherries are a nice alternative to using raisins in a more traditional rice pudding recipe. What I really like about this recipe is that the yogurt ensures that your pudding gets nice and plump without requiring heavy creams or fatty ingredients. The cinnamon offsets any mild tanginess from the yogurt. This tastes great freshly made or after a couple hours in the fridge.

Happened to have all the ingredients on hand. This was a quick and easy recipe. I used plain yogurt and also added toasted sliced almonds. That added a nice crunch to the creamy pudding. This is definitely a good recipe to have for last minute desserts.
