Rice Pudding

I have no picture (foreshadowing hint: it wasn't worth a picture). I chose rice pudding because I have been trying rice pudding recipes for a couple of years now without success. I was looking for a simple hands-free solution to all my rice pudding problems and this seemed to have potential.

3/4 cup uncooked short grain white rice
13 1/2 oz skim evaporated milk
2 cups water
1/3 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup raisins ( I omitted)
1 1/2 tsp vanilla
3/4 tsp salt
1 cinnamon stick

Measure all ingredients into 3 1/2 quart slow cooker. Stir. Cover. Cook on Low for 4-5 hours or on High for 2-2 1/2 hours, stirring once or twice. Makes 4 3/4 cups.

Review:
I think my only two positive comments would be 1) super easy 2) it solidified. That's it though. Maybe I cooked it too long but this was very dissapointing. It had a tough gummy texture and none of the smooth creamy flavour I was so hoping for. I don't recommend this recipe at all unless you plan on making some changes.
