Creamy Risotto & Chicken Burritos w/ Fresh Guacamole

New Lunch On-the-Go Recipe

Thank you to Knorr® for sponsoring this recipe.

This has now become one of my family’s favorite meals. They want it for dinner and packed the next day for lunch. We used Knorr® Selects Four Cheese Risotto, and man does it have a melt-in-your-mouth texture, plus it’s full of flavor! I also love that it’s nutritious and easy to make – just add Knorr® Selects, a lean protein (like the chicken I added) and your favorite veggies. You just can’t beat that!  

But wait, there is more! This easy-to-use product only took me 20 minutes to cook AND only cost me $10 to feed our family of four (that’s just $2.50 per serving) – talk about a keeper! The first time I made them, my teen son asked, “Mom, can you make these more often?” I said, “Sure, baby!” This is a meal that not only tastes good, but makes my family feel good! 

P.S. – You could make these for the kids in advance for after school meals. Just wrap them in foil and then you can reheat them in the microwave anytime (after removing foil of course)! Talk about WINNING! You wouldn’t have to cook that night AND you have a good, nutritious meal solution for your family when you’re strapped for cash or time!
