Bonduelle with Risoallegre brings authentic Italian risotto to the ready-meal segment

Bonduelle expands its offering in the fresh ready-meal segment with Risoallegre, a range of risottos combining selected ingredients, taste and ease of preparation.

In the ready-meal market, the risotto segment generates a value of 19 million euros, growing by 7% in value (Nielsen At 2026). This trend confirms consumers’ interest in practical solutions without compromising on taste. In this context, Bonduelle is expanding its presence in the category with an offering that celebrates one of the most iconic dishes of Italian tradition and offers consumers and distributors new choices.

Risoallegre revolutionises the segment through a combination of distinctive features: Carnaroli rice, enriched with Grana Padano Dop and selected ingredients. An innovative cooking process enables the grain to retain its structure through the subsequent stages, ensuring a creamy, enveloping consistency faithful to homemade risotto. The product is also gluten-free, meeting the need for inclusivity and consumer care.

The range consists of three recipes: Mushroom Risotto, Courgette and Saffron Risotto, Tomato and Mozzarella Risotto. To complete the offering, a fork is included and preparation takes just 1 minute and 30 in the microwave: features that make Risoallegre a practical solution for lunch at the office, meals away from home or occasions when a tasty meal is needed in just a few minutes.
