What if my Risotto isn't rehydrated?
Give it a little bit longer. Rehydration isn't an exact science, and factors such as altitude and ambient temperature can have an affect. Be sure to stir this meal well, as the thicker consistency of this dish requires a few extra stirs to incorporate all of the ingredients.
Are there a lot of mushrooms?
Short answer: yes. We load it with sautéed cremini mushrooms and cook the arborio rice in a mushroom stock. If you're not a fan of mushrooms, you may want to choose a different meal!

Our risotto was created the old-school way. Caramelize onions in olive oil, add the risotto and toast slightly, deglaze with white wine, slowly add stock. Boom. Finally, the basil pesto and sautéed mushrooms are added.

If you like mushrooms give this one a try! You wouldn't be disappointed!!
This is probably my favorite backpacking meal. I always have a bunch in my car and often eat them when I’m not backpacking. Similar price and way healthier than stopping somewhere for a few slices of pizza.
(No matter the backpacking meal, I always try to insulate the meal with a jacket and let it sit for a few minutes longer than instructed for best results)
This is my go to camping meal! Filling and delicious!
Good tasting comfort food at the end of the day.
Just the right serving size
My granddaughter son and I were backpacking in Indiana last week during her fall break, and thoroughly enjoyed the mushroom risotto.
