I happily purchased a wide range of Maggi products after reading the reviews by the wonderful Mom’s community members on these products. I decided to test out many of the recipes on the always hungry family. Maggi has now become a favourite in our household. The request now is for “More Maggi Meals Please”.
I loved both the Maggi one pan risottos. So easy to use as you can add the liquid & then do other things while it cooks itself. It tastes great without having to stand over the pan for the entire cooking process. We have repeated this recipe multiple times in our house already.
I love risotto but I never cooked it at home simply because I have never had the confidence to cook it. When the Maggi One Pan Risotto Recipe Base arrived on my doorstep, I was excited to try it out. With the recipe base, I just could not believe that it was that easy to cook a risotto right there in my own kitchen! The risotto was moist and creamy with full flavour. My family is not keen on risottos but even they found it tasty. I must confess though that I didn’t use leek but used baby peas and spinach instead. With this experience, I will now make sure that my pantry will have at least 1 pack of the risotto recipe base at any time.
Very easy to use taste really nice the whole family enjoyed including my daughter which doesn’t surprise me as she loves everything we eat she eats not a fussy eater as some kids are. Will def recommend this product & buy from now on much better to use found it really easy to follow. Thank you 🙂
I always thought risotto was a complicated dish! Maggi made it simple. Great ingredients my kids came back for more, a dish the whole family enjoyed. Great that it is made in the one pot so not so much washing up! Will definitely have this again and recommend to friends and family. Thanks for letting me trial Maggi Risotto
as a non mushroom eating family we changed them for carrots and that worked out fine. easy to follow the instructions and very quick compared to usual risotto recipes.we will be using this product again. certainly very handy to have in the cupboard for grabbing quickly and no need to run to the shops for exotic ingredients.
Another fantastic product that was easy for the children to help with, we used prawns instead of chicken and the children loved making it as we’ll as eating it. They also made a crunchy salad to go with it which made it a healthy meal for the whole family, will definitely have it again.
We actually received the Chicken Risotto with Spinach and Pumpkin. We all loved it, this is now a staple in our shopping and cooking, easy to use and oh so delicious. I actually had no pumpkin but used sweet potato instead and was still delicious
By far the best product maggi has has ever created! I will be buying this every week! My husband loves it too as do the little ones! I precooked the rice to half way before adding it to the rest of the mixture, it knocked off half of the cooking time and it was still lovely and moist without being too dried out or there being any risk of uncooked rice which I have a problem with usually when I make risotto.
Maggi One Pan Chicken, Leek & Mushroom Risotto is such a flavoursome and tasty dish, I really enjoy eating this meal.
The kids find the taste to be equally nice as their is no complaints about what’s for dinner and they leave their plates clean.
Maggi One Pan Chicken, Leek & Mushroom Risotto is a breeze to use, no tiresome adding of stock and stirring every few minutes. Just everything together and away you go.
Maggi One Pan Dinners are winners!
I love Risotto, but have always been too scared to cook it, and having to constantly watch it. This recipe base iso so easy to follow, and is unbelievably yummy.
With one child who is fussy, for him to enjoy it and eat his whole bowl, there is something to be said. It is so easy and so so yummy!
Maggi One Pan Chicken, Leek & Mushroom Risotto is so simple to make and use!
Easy, step by step instructions and less mess by using one pan.
Maggi One Pan Chicken, Leek & Mushroom Risotto is enjoyed by the whole family and is something I like to keep on hand when I don’t want to think about dinner.
I really enjoy using Maggi One Pan Chicken, Leek & Mushroom Risotto.
I bought this product at the supermarket after trying the Maggi one pan dinner risotto with the pumpkin and baby spinach that you add the chicken to [ I was given this via mom to review.]This one with the leek and mushroom was equally as nice to eat and very tasty. It is such a handy item to have in your pantry for those quick delicious meals and the great thing about this risotto is that you use only one pan so no huge piles of washing up!
excellent I used leftover chicken and mushrooms too. Can use it with rice and diced vegetables too. Good to have Maggi packets in pantry too, lots of exciting things you can create too.Add to other dishes for extra flavour too. The perfect solution for making quick dishes a must in your pantry it is true
MAGGI ONE PAN CHICKEN, LEEK & MUSHROOM RISOTTO is ideal for a quickly, tasty and easy meal, to whip up in around 30 minutes. This was a much simpler way to make risotto, and I can pretty much guarantee that the results are going to be good. When I feeling slack MAGGI ONE PAN CHICKEN, LEEK & MUSHROOM RISOTTO is good to have.
Love Maggi One Pan Chicken, Leek and Mushroom Risotto. These meals are so deliciously tasty! One pan, dinner cooked in thirty minutes, easy to follow, minimal preparation and the best tasting risotto with minimal time and effort. Maggi One Pan Chicken, Leek and Mushroom Risotto is one of our favourite dinners!

I happily purchased a wide range of Maggi products after reading the reviews by the wonderful Mom’s community members on these products. I decided to test out many of the recipes on the always hungry family. The verdict from everyone is a big thumbs up- a winner! They enjoyed Chicken, Leek and Mushroom Risotto; it my favourite as I love this combination of flavours.
I have a rarely fussy little boy, and he loves the risotto, despite not eating rice. I was especially pleased that my partner ate it, and it is ridiculously hard to give him something he doesn’t pick at. It was easy to prepare, and I didn’t have to stand over it the whole time. The flavors are amazing, and definitely unexpected from a packet mix.
I was cooking chicken and mushrooms other day and put in rice uncooked and packet of risotto mix and lit milk let it simmer was delicious and easy to do. Like packets of mixes in my cupboard it is true. To add a different flavour and something new
These have been a great alternative to the noodles standby. Definitely a favourite with the time poor, high energy Uni student. The need to have have instant food, instantly available, is never ending in our household. I was tempted to give this a try and now it is a firm favourite. It is filling and nutritious, and makes a great base for other ingredients. It now has a permanent place in our pantry.
This was super easy to make, but not nearly as tasty as I hoped. This is a dish I think I would prefer to make from scratch, using alot more fresh ingrediants. On the flip side, it’s definately quicker to cook the risotto with the Maggi packet on a weeknight after work, so much easier to get the meal in front of the kids than if they have to wait.
My husband is not a big fan of rice dishes but, he really enjoys the taste of Maggi One Pan Chicken, Leek and Mushroom Risotto. I like that it’s easy to use and I know that the whole family will enjoy it. A great, quick meal to get onto the the dinner table when you are time poor,
At first glance I was a little underwhelmed. It didn’t appear to be anything I wouldn’t ordinarily make myself… The end result however was incredibly tasty. Sophisticated enough for a foodie adult, but not overwhelming for my 3yo who wolfed his down. Great addition to the cupboard for days where inspiration is lacking.
For a quick, easy and tasty meal MAGGI ONE PAN CHICKEN, LEEK & MUSHROOM RISOTTO ticks all the boxes. I usually like to make my meals from scratch but use packet mixes when I’m feeling a bit slack. This was a simple way to make risotto and I have to admit, I’ll probably make risotto like this from now on.
A winner for our family, I have never attempted a risotto before thinking it was all too hard but with this pouch it was a cinch. Tasted great and the rice was cooked to perfection. The kids who are usually really picky eaters finished their plates which was great to see. I have added this to my shopping list as a staple now for the pantry. It will also be handy when extra guests pop in for dinner as it certainly makes a fair amount.
When I first received this product, I thought “I’ll never make this – risotto is too hard”. I put off making it for a few days, but when I did I was pleasantly surprised! It was so easy and tasted great. I don’t normally make packet stuff because the tasted is usually bland, but this was really nice! I loved that it was all in the one pot. I will definitely buy this in the future.
I took a photo to share but the file size was too big 🙁

Genius Beach And Pool Tips Every Aussie Mum Should Know
Summer beach and pool days are core childhood memory creators, but getting the kids out the door, not so much! From wrestling wriggly toddlers into rashies to arguing with teens trying to dodge sunscreen and cramming half the house into the car, the exhaustion can kick in before we’ve even set foot on the sand!
But there are some very clever tips that will make even the most stressful summer days smooth sailing – and the Mouths of Mums community know them all! Which is why we asked our mums for their hints, hacks and tips – from sand removal to stress-free sunscreen application (we’re going to introduce you to the fabulous new Banana Boat SmartMist Sunscreen Sprays that will make your life so much easier).
You’ll want to take note before you next hit the beach or pool!
Pack Smart, Not Big
Do you feel like you take waaayyy too much when you head to the beach or pool, and then you seem to forget a couple of key things that would have made life so much easier?
Our Mouths of Mums community swear by this fab list of essentials which should be in every mum’s beach kit, and
A plastic bag for wet towels and bathers
A dry bag for clothes
A bucket or basin to wash off sandy toys
A ‘clean zone’, sand-free blanket or mat for eating and changing
A pop-up tent for changing
Waterproof phone case
Talcum powder to get sticky, wet sand off little feet. Just pop it on and brush it off – it’s magic!
A hand-held car vac for quick sand cleanups!
“The amount of times my kids have gone home in wet chafing swimming costumes because they didn’t want anyone to see them changing is unbelievable! Our pop up tent has been life changing! We all drive home comfy and cosy! Lastly, a sand proof picnic blanket is so perfect for a sand reprieve! The sand literally falls right through them!” – MoM Member
Get Safety Sorted Before The Fun Starts
It’s pretty hard to get the kids’ attention once you’re at the beach or pool, so the safety talk should really start at home. Our mums recommend chatting to the kids about:
Swimming between the flags at the beach
Setting a meeting spot in case anyone gets separated
Sunscreen: Always apply sunscreen 20 minutes before heading outdoors. And set alarms to reapply every two hours throughout the day. Reapply immediately after swimming or using a towel.
Applying sunscreen at the start of the day and regularly throughout is so important, but it usually causes the most arguments. Kids don’t want to stop, teens assure you they ‘did it already’.
That’s where Banana Boat’s new SmartMist™ Sunscreen Spray SPF50+ actually makes a difference. The iconic sunscreen brand has just launched its newest product, which turns sunscreen time into something simple and fun. It’s an easy and convenient way to tick off sun safety – which isn’t always easy when it comes to kids!
Why Banana Boat SmartMist Sunscreen Spray makes sunscreen easier
The Smart Control Spray gives you the choice of a short spray for tricky spots or a long spray for larger areas like those wiggly little legs, making application simple and convenient. It also sprays from any angle – just spray, rub in and you’re ready for playtime.
Clear, lightweight formula that absorbs fast and with no greasy feel.
SPF50+ broad spectrum UVA and UVB protection and 4-hour water resistant.
Kids SmartMist™ is mild and gentle for kid’s sensitive skin, fragrance free and contains Aloe and Vitamin E.
Sport SmartMist™ features high-performance Powerstay Technology™, designed to stay on through sweat and water.
Banana Boat SmartMist makes those important sunscreen stops much easier and effective and is perfect for active Aussie families this summer.
Prep & Time It Perfectly
There’s nothing worse than kids itching to get to the beach while you’re trying to remember everything you need to pack – it makes everyone frazzled. So get prepped early – even the night before. And time your departure to minimise the amount of time in the car (and the amount of times the kids ask ‘are we there yet?!’.
“Packing the car the night before, always a huge help getting the bucket, cabana, and bag of spare clothes/towels in the boot. We usually leave straight after breakfast to avoid heavy traffic as the beach is an hour away.” – MoM Member
Pack Smart Snacks
Snacks are a must, but it can be tricky to know what’s going to survive a hot, Aussie summer day – and what’s good for hungry tummies. Here’s what our mums recommend:
Chopped fruit
Crackers
Boiled eggs
Drink bottles that have been frozen overnight
“We have a few allergies/intolerances, so being prepared with food is helpful and saves us the search and some money. I pre-chop carrots, cucumber, apples, boiled egg, in a handy separating container, a packet of chips, dip, and bring water bottles. If it’s a longer day planned at the beach I’ll bring lunch too.” – MoM Member
A chaos-free beach day. Yes please!
You don’t need a military-style plan to enjoy a sunny day out. A beach trolley, some prep, and an easy sunscreen like SmartMist™ are enough to help things run calmly – or at least calm-ish!
Always read the label and follow the directions for use. Wear protective clothing, a hat and sunglasses in addition to sunscreen. Reapply frequently every 2 hours or more often when sweating and immediately after swimming or using a towel. Avoid prolonged high-risk sun exposure.
