Villsopprisotto

The garlic and chives come through just right, giving it that restaurant-style depth without being overpowering. I was skeptical about a plant-based risotto, but the creamy texture and earthy mushroom flavor really sold me.

I was skeptical about a plant-based risotto being creamy, but the garlic and chives really come through and the pearl barley holds its texture perfectly. It's got that rich, earthy depth I crave from the classic dish, and it reheats well for lunch the next day.

The pearl barley gives it a nice chewy bite that regular risotto rice doesn't have, and the creamy texture is spot on. I added a bit of extra black pepper and it was a solid weeknight dinner.
