Authentically Italian, risotto is a gourmet take on rice, which up until now has always been delicious but never easy to prepare at home. We bring you Backpacker’s Pantry Risotto with Chicken, a hearty and flavorful dish, packed with chicken and veggies in a freeze-dried version that is not only convenient and easy to prepare but great tasting and nutritionally balanced as well.

With 31 grams of protein per pouch, this isn’t just carb-heavy- we made sure to cover your protein too! Now you can take the international flavors of Italy along with you on any kind of adventure whether it be backpacking, sailing, mountaineering or hunting. Imagine, Risotto with Chicken on the side of a peak or while you’re cruising the waves!
