I halved the recipe. I also added fresh thyme and oregano. It was a great fresh addition as I didn't have green onions.

I chose to cook this on a hot and humid day...that was a mistake, but the results are fabulous! I should have cut the recipe in half, but had already reconstituted twice the mushrooms I should have. The risotto is lovely and creamy and the dish is the perfect meal for a mushroom lover like me! Hope it freezes well...

This recipe is wonderful, and a perfect vegetarian offering for a buffet. I'll make this again! Thanks, J in L!
