FAQS

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!

Classic Risotto with Sautéed Mushrooms and Basil Pesto

Important WARNING for California Residents

Cremini Mushroom

Cremini Mushroom

Cremini mushrooms (aka young portobello mushrooms) are rich with micronutrients such as antioxidants and potassium, and are high in fiber, too. Not only do these little fungi add a ton of flavor but they are a great way to promote everyday health.
Arborio Rice

Arborio Rice

Arborio is an Italian short-grain rice, best-known for its use in risotto. Its high starch content and chewy texture are responsible for the creaminess that risotto fans adore.
Basil

Basil

Basil's sweet and savory notes perfectly compliment the deep, earthy flavors from the mushrooms.

    Probably a "1 Tums" meal

    Tasty, filling. I'll tell you in the morning if the spice level is compatible with an older stomach. This was tried in the kitchen at home, with the heater on which is not quite the same as being outside, in the dark, with temps hovering just above freezing after 10 - 12 miles on the trail.

    Raccoon Stole My Meal

    I'm laughing as I type this. The Mushroom Risotto is my favorite meal. I love it. I've ordered it several times. I can't say enough about how good it taste........

    I ordered seven Good-to-Go meals during the holiday sale. One evening I got home and noticed a torn apart box on my porch. The raccoons had found the box before I did. All seven meals had been torn into and taste tested by the raccoons. A good day for them...bummer for me.

    But if you want a tasty meal get the Mushroom Risotto.
