My dh and I love risotto, so I new we would love this. We paired this with Recipe #200296 and it blended nicely. I used a little bit of romano cheese with the parmesan instead of asiago. Thanks for this tasty recipe!

This is very nice. I always have such trouble with traditional risotto, but this is just as good and so much easier to prepare. Keeper for sure. :)
