Easy Purple Sticky Rice Pudding

In a medium saucepan combine rice, milk, banana, vanilla pod and seeds, and 1½ cups water. Bring to boiling; reduce heat. Cover and simmer about 25 minutes or until rice is tender. Remove lid; cook 1 minute more to “tighten” rice into a creamy pudding. Remove vanilla pod. Serve pudding warm, chilled, or at room temperature. Top with fruit.
