*We often get asked about meal sizes. A Medium is perfect for me (a female hiker, even on tough Rim of Africa type hikes). A Large – think more hungry man-sized. And then High Performance options with added quinoa – excellent for growing teenage boys and ultra lengthy, tough, cold hikes! I hope this helps.

This was probably my favourite meal on the hike – and the added touch of parmesan was great!
Angela –
This meal is DELICIOUS (as they all are)! what a treat after a long day walking, with dry snacks for lunch, to sit down around my little gas cooker and wip up this truly yummy meal. Your meals have honestly revolutionised my trails experience – no more minute noodles and dry snacks only! I will be ordering this and your other meals for every trail I do! thanks Trail Food Co.

Absolutely delicious. Let mine rest for 40 mins in my sleeping bag, the risotto was cooked perfectly, mushrooms were soft and overall a great tasty meal that’s as still HOT!
Jess Tyrrell –

Karyn –
One of our favourites. Delicious!
Shannon –
Very good flavour, packed with mushrooms! Make sure to let it soak long enough so the rice is nice and soft.
Corné van Heerden –
Thia was the most horrible meal I have ever had! The onion is so overpowering that you don’t taste anything else. And the horrible taste stayed with me till after breakfast. I bought 8 meals, this was my first.. Hipe the rest are better. Feom the Italian dolomites.

Dear Corne
Firstly I sincerely apologise for your experience of the Mushroom Risotto. I’m at a loss as to why this happened – our risotto is one of our top sellers and the chef follows the exact same recipe every time.
I will happily credit you for the risotto meals you purchased from us and if you could please let me know how you find the remaining meals – we really do value your feedback.
Many thanks
Trish

Gluten and dairy free option winner for me. Was delicious on the trail
Only had to boil water and soak in packet. Easy and lightweight.

I had the Mushroom risotto 2 times at a trail 3 years ago and thought it was bland, but I wanted to try it again. It was delicious this time, my new favourite. My husband had it too and love it.

Our family’s most favourite meal from Trail Food Company! This is always on our camping shopping list. Just enjoyed once more and still our best meal option.
Sav –
The mushroom risotto was really good but after hiking for awhile I wasn’t really in the mood for it, but it was one of my top meals
Helen –
I didn’t expect to get restaurant-quality mushroom risotto on a mountain top! Very hearty and tasty and with the added bonus of the bag serving as a hot water bottle in my hands as we waited for it to be ready!
