This Campbell’s recipe is not only easy and no fuss, it’s darn delicious. The risotto can easily be served as a main dish, however, sometimes I omit the meat and have it as a side with steak, fish, or chicken breast.
The original recipe included a number of low-fat ingredients, such as low-fat mushroom soup, mozzarella, and parmesan. I substitute with the real deal, but I’m sure it tastes delicious any way you like to put it together.
Enjoy!
