Too much garlic!
The smell and taste of this was far too overpowering for me. I normally don’t mind a little garlic flavouring but this for me was just too strong. It was very easy to make and the perfect amount for a family of four. Excellent side dish for any meal. If they come out with other flavours I would definitely try them. Sadly I won’t be buying this one simply for the fact of the overpowering garlic. *i recieved this product complimentary from family rated for reviewing purposes*
Easy side dish
My family had a chance to try out this side dish from @FamilyRatedClub. The preparation was easy and ready in about ten minutes, and I just needed to add water, milk, and unsalted butter. My husband and I liked it because we love roasted garlic. My three kids did not like the taste or texture of the rice and found the garlic to be a little overpowering. I think if I used this rice as a part of a main dish with chicken and some veggies instead of as a side dish my family would like it more. My concerns were about the carb and sodium intake being a little high for diabetes and high blood pressure. If I were to purchase this again, it would be as an occasional meal because of the high carb and sodium intake. #tryknorr #gotitfree
Ok side
I bought this with a coupon I found. It's an ok side but the texture wasn't our favorite. The taste was good and it was easy to make. It takes longer to make than the other brands but the result is the same.
Yummy Roasted GArlic Alfredo Rice
#gotitfree I am not normally an Alfredo fan, however it is very tasty rice, cooks quickly and makes a great side or even for lunch! I love that it is Gluten Free and contains no preservatives or artificial flavours! #tryKNORR
Bon accompagnement de repas
J'ai été sélectionnée pour essayer gratuitement l'accompagnement de repas Knorr Selects Riz Alfredo à l'ail rôti. Facile à préparer, rapide et économique. C'est une belle alternative au riz blanc ordinaire, question de faire changement. Mes enfants de 2 et 5 ans ont bien aimé, ça passe le test! Pour ma part, j'ai moins aimé le goût prononcé de l'ail, je vais essayer les autres saveurs.

sooooooo gooood
This was so easy to use and the advantages of putting meat and veggies in it is an awesome way for supper or dinner alternatives. You can also spice it up more if you need too. This was a great side dish .Very affordable and would buy again.
Very Flavourful
This is perfect for a quick side to a quick meal! In only 10 minutes we had a flavourful rice dish to go with the rest of our meal. While it was simmering, the roasted garlic smell was super strong, but once I tasted it, the garlic was pretty mellow. The rice was firm, but soft and it was really creamy. If you’re a fan of garlic, you’ll definitely like this!
A family favourite in our home!
This rice mixture is a family favourite in my house. It's fast to make and great when I’m in a hurry. Love that I just need to add water and butter, bring to a boil and cook 7 minutes. I like to turn the burner off a couple minutes early so the mixture stays a little juicier. I highly recommend this to anyone who likes flavored rice and is looking for something quick and tasty! #gotitfree
Kinda mushy
I love side dishes. Smelled great when cooking. Let it sit for 5 min before dinner and the rice stayed mushy. The flavour was pretty good but I would prefer to add chicken or something to it to make it more like a meal.
A Quick, Tasty Dinner Option
We don't often include rice in our family dinner, but when we do it tends to be plain brown or wild rice with some stock or spices added.
I usually stay away from packaged products, due to the typical lengthy ingredients list of unpronouncable names. I was pelasantly surprised to read the Knorr Selects package, seeing that it it made with real food ingredients, and is preservative/artifical flavouring free. It is also gluten free if that is an issue in your home.
The rice was so simple to make, and was done in ten minutes. I added some diced bell peppers, and served it with some vegetables and hummus. My daughter loved it, and it made great leftovers for lunch the next day.
The flavouring was appealing, though it would be nicely complimented with a seasoned protein as the roasted garlic flavour is mild. I'm going to pick up a few other flavours from the line to see if there are other options we would like more.
Overall, Knorr Selects are a great option to keep in the pantry for quick dinners. You can feel good about the ingredients, and the price is great as well!
