RightRice Risotto is Dairy-Free and Packed with Probiotics

— March 12, 2021 — Lifestyle
After introducing vegetable-rich alternatives to conventional rice, RightRice is introducing RightRice Risotto as a refreshed version of the staple Italian dish. Free from dairy and packed with protein, RightRice Risotto is plant-based, non-GMO and made with a combination of legumes—90% lentils, chickpeas and green peas and less than 10% rice plus dehydrated vegetables and spices, in fact.

A serving of this risotto is rich with 10 grams of plant-based protein, five grams of fiber and it can be prepared in about 12 minutes. RightRice Risotto can be found in a variety of flavors like Creamy Parmesan, Wild Mushroom, Basil Pesto, and Creamy Cracked Pepper.

Keith Belling, founder and CEO of RightRice, says, "As consumers are looking to incorporate more plant-based products into their diets without sacrificing taste or flavor, RightRice Risotto continues our focus on reimagining the rice aisle and redefining classic rice dishes."
