Find the right cream of rice for your diet

Cream of rice is a smooth rice-based food that has become particularly popular in sports nutrition and bodybuilding diets as a convenient source of carbohydrates. It can be prepared as a hot meal and eaten on its own or combined with ingredients such as protein powder, fruit and nut butter to create a meal that fits your nutritional requirements.

Sports nutrition cream of rice is available in unflavoured and flavoured varieties, with everything from simple rice formulas to dessert-inspired flavours. When comparing products, look at carbohydrates and calories per serving, ingredients, serving size, flavour and preparation instructions.

Different pack sizes Compare serving size and servings per bag alongside the overall pack weight to understand how many meals a product can provide and its cost per serving.

How to compare cream of rice

Check carbohydrates per serving

Cream of rice is primarily used as a carbohydrate food. Compare the grams of carbohydrate provided by your intended serving rather than simply comparing the total weight of different bags.

Compare calories

Calories depend on the product and portion size as well as anything you add when preparing it. Check the nutrition information for the cream of rice itself and account separately for toppings and other ingredients.

Read the ingredient list

Some products use relatively simple rice-based formulas, while flavoured varieties can contain flavourings, sweeteners and other ingredients. Check the full ingredient list if you have particular dietary requirements.

Compare flavours

Flavour is an important consideration if cream of rice forms a regular part of your diet. You can choose a ready-flavoured product or use an unflavoured variety as a base for your own combinations.

Check preparation instructions

The amount of water and cooking method can differ between products. Follow the individual instructions and adjust consistency where appropriate depending on whether you prefer your cream of rice thicker or thinner.

Compare cost per serving

Use the pack weight and your typical serving size to estimate how many portions you will get from each bag. This provides a more useful comparison than looking at the purchase price alone.

Good to know: Cream of rice is primarily a carbohydrate food rather than a protein supplement. Its final nutritional profile depends heavily on portion size and what you add to it. Protein powder, nut butter, fruit and other toppings can substantially change the protein, carbohydrate, fat and calorie content of the finished meal.

Cream of rice for training & sports nutrition

Before training

Cream of rice is commonly included in pre-workout meals as a source of carbohydrate. If eating it around training, consider portion size, the other foods included in your meal and how much time you personally prefer between eating and exercising.

After training

Cream of rice can also form the carbohydrate portion of a post-workout meal. Combining it with a suitable protein source is one way to build a meal containing both carbohydrate and protein.

Increasing carbohydrate intake

Because serving size can be adjusted, cream of rice can be incorporated into diets requiring different amounts of carbohydrate. Use the nutrition information to calculate the portion appropriate for your own diet.

Meal preparation

Cream of rice can provide a straightforward base for repeatable meals. Keeping the portion and toppings consistent also makes it easier to calculate the nutritional content when tracking your intake.

What can you add to cream of rice?

Protein powder Mixing protein powder into cream of rice is a popular way to add protein and flavour. Check the serving information for both products when calculating the finished meal.

Fruit Fresh or frozen fruit can add flavour and change the carbohydrate, calorie and fibre content of your finished bowl.

Nut butter Peanut, almond and other nut butters can be used as toppings, while also adding fats, protein and additional calories to the meal.

Sauces & toppings Syrups, sauces and other toppings can add flavour without changing the cream of rice itself. Check their individual nutrition information when tracking your intake.
