Ingredients
  

  • 1.5 cups risoni
  • 500 ml boiling water
  • 500 g sliced mushrooms
  • 250 g diced bacon
  • 300 g baby spinach

Method
 

  1. Heat a pan with a little oil, add bacon and garlic, and cook until the bacon is golden and sizzling.
  2. Add mushrooms, chicken stock powder, thyme, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Stir well and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
  3. Toss in the risoni and boiling water. Stir it up, pop a lid on, and turn the heat to low. Let it cook for 8 minutes, or until the risoni is soft and absorbs all that goodness.
  4. Once cooked, stir through cream and spinach.
  5. Finish with a squeeze of lemon for that fresh, zesty kick. Serve it up hot and watch it disappear!
