Vegetarian Arancini are a delightful Italian dish originating from Sicily, traditionally served as an appetizer or snack. These golden, crispy rice balls are made with creamy risotto, mixed with ingredients like peas, mushrooms, spinach, or sun-dried tomatoes, and stuffed with melty cheese. They are coated in breadcrumbs and lightly fried to perfection. While indulgent, Vegetarian Arancini can be a source of protein and fiber from the vegetables and legumes, as well as calcium from the cheese. Using brown rice can add whole-grain benefits, and baking them instead of frying cuts back on unhealthy fats. Perfectly satisfying and versatile, they are a must-try for fans of Italian cuisine seeking a vegetarian-friendly option.
