The rice pudding recipe I use does indeed contain eggs, lots of eggs
and milk, I use exactly the same recipe for tapioca pudding... I
happen to like tapioca better.

PEARL TAPIOCA PUDDING

1/2 C. pearl tapioca
2 C. milk
2 eggs
1/2 c. sugar
1/4 C. milk
1 1/2 tsp. vanilla

Soak tapioca overnight

Cook tapioca and the 2 C.
milk in top of double boiler
until tapioca becomes clear.

Mix eggs and sugar together and thin with
the 1/4 C. milk.

Cook till thick and add vanilla
