Goat Cheese Risotto Balls

Ingredients

• 1 (5.5 ounce) package dry risotto mix
• 4 ounces goat cheese
• 1 tablespoon olive oil

Directions

Prepare risotto according to package directions. Chill in the refrigerator at least 1 hour, until cooled.

Roll risotto into 2 inch mounds. Place a marble-sized chunk of goat cheese on each mound. Press cheese chunks into mounds, then roll mounds around cheese, creating balls.

In a medium saucepan over medium heat, heat the oil and cook the risotto balls, turning occasionally, until evenly golden brown. Drain on paper towels and serve hot.
