This calcium-rich soup is a fabulous way to start a day. It's easy to make and gluten-free alternative to a bowl of sugary cereal. My four-year-old loves it!

How to Make The Mother Grain Milk Soup

Step-by-Step

Combine milk and scraped vanilla seeds in a medium saucepan. Place it over medium-low heat, and bring the milk mixture to a gentle boil (little bubbles will begin to form along the edges of the pot).
Add the pasta and cook according to the package directions, or remove the pot from heat 1-2 minutes before recommended cooking time and let it
stand for about 5 minutes, covered, in order to allow pasta finish cooking in an energy-saving way.
