About:

Arancini have long been one of my Italian favorites, especially when dipped in a warm plate of basil-tomato marinara sauce. What? You’ve never heard of arancini? They are basically Italian rice/risotto balls stuffed with cheese, usually mozzarella. They are DIVINE. Normally arancini is a rice ball coated with breadcrumbs and deep fried but here I baked them to make it guilt free.  To lighten up this Italian favorite I used brown rice, fresh herbs and baked them instead of frying.  Let me tell all of you these still came out fantastic!
