I’d always see Chef Gordon Ramsay make risotto on his show, and wanted to try it so badly! When I went on a cruise they served mushroom risotto and I was so excited! lol It was delicious!

Honestly, I didn’t know you could buy risotto in a package like that. When I shop I don’t look around, I go in and want to get out quickly. I will eat it much more often now that I know it’s available like this. One of the reasons I really like blogs…I find out about all kinds of new things.

Did you say Risotto AND Shrimp??? These are two of my favorite foods and combined would taste like heaven. The recipe looks easy and the dish looks tasty…Win/Win!
Cathy Jarolin says
This Recipe is so Lovely looking and I know it quite Delicious if you like shrimp! Most people do. Unfortunately I do not. The only fish I eat is tuna fish and it has to have mayonaise and onion in it served as a salad or on a Bun or Bread. I am wondering if I could substitue Chicken Breast chopped into smaller pcs in it? It is a very quick meal so thats awesome!!
Cathy Jarolin says

Rebecca Woodin says
Sounds REALLY good. Sadly we have so many food allergies I can’t make it…. bit maybe one day we will outgrow them!
Michelle S says
This looks super easy and a recipe I think my kids would like. My only concern would be the sodium level in the Knorr packet. I have to watch my sodium and sometimes these types of mixes are really high in sodium.

Sarah Phillips says
Wow, this recipe has me DROOLING! I would probably substitute the shrimp with garlic chicken, but I’m definitely going to try this! I’m heading to the grocery store in a bit and I’ll be keeping my eye out for the Knorr Selects Four Cheese Risotto now! Thanks for sharing!
