Asparagus Risotto

Once you try this rich, creamy risotto you won’t be ever coming back to your regular typical risotto. Serve it as a side or first course along with the fancy dinner ideas such as pan sautéed chicken breast or vegetables, fish, and a glass of American barleywine.

This simple mushroom risotto is nearly foolproof. Other than the Arborio rice, all the other ingredients are simple panty staples, and comes together in under 45 minutes with only a fair amount of effort. This is a great light main dish, when paired with a simple arugula salad and a glass of dry white wine.

Once you see how easy it is to make a delicious risotto from scratch, you will wonder why it ever intimidated you. Try this yummy version that features fresh peas, asparagus, onion, lemon, and a splash of white wine. Each bite brings a burst of flavor to your taste buds!

For this rich, classy mushroom risotto recipe with parmesan, Arborio rice, quinoa and aruguala , we like it best when made with chestnut mushrooms, but any type mushrooms works. Serve alongside pork roast or roasted chicken.
