Lunch - Chicken Soup w/ Risotto

The Meal

In light of having a good parking spot, I've chosen to wait until tomorrow to go purchase food.
This meal consists of:
  • 1 18.6 OZ. can of Campbell's Select Harvest - Chicken with Egg Noodles
    [550 mL of soup @ 120 calories per 240mL = 275 calories]
  • 2/3 cup Risotto Rice
    [~464 calories]
  • Enough water to fill the rice cooker to 2 cups
The meal cooked in the rice cooker for about 25 minutes on cook, then I let it set for 10 minutes (it was still boiling) on keep warm.


Taste

Review: So the dish was well cooked, the rice was cooked perfectly. The mixture dried out quite a bit, forming a solid. I added dried onion and salt to make the meal have more taste, it was quite bland on its own. This meal does not cool quickly.

Picture:


Portion Size: Made enough for 3-4 good size portions.

Calories: ~739

Score: 6/10

Ideas for next time: Add onion and salt seasoning ahead of time. Salt - 1 teaspoon, onion - as desired. Try adding more water, perhaps fill to 2.25 cups.
