This gets real. This gets very real. Next time you see thick cubed ham in a vacuum-packed thingy, get it. It’s right next to the Canadian bacon. Because we’re about to make the hardiest risotto ya ever did know. But also we’re sliding in velvety arugula so it’s basically vegan! Just kidding. Don’t come at […]

Late Summer Tomato Risotto with Roasted Corn
Just in case you needed to throw a liiiiittle more summer in your mouth. AND – this one’s vegetarian (besides the chicken stock). I get a lot of requests for vegetarian, so here ya go, bunnies! (sub veggie stock if y’awnt.) I’ll tell you how to winterize this in a minute. It’s honestly a year-round […]
Bruschetta Shrimp Risotto
OKAY, let’s talk about something real quick before you yell at me all off-with-her-head style. Also, look at that. ^^ I mean my gosh. Okay but first. AH KNOW that the word “bruschetta” actually refers to the garlicky grilled bread in which the chopped tomatoes rest upon. And there’s no actual bread in this risotto. […]
Barley Risotto with Chicken, Spinach and Sun-dried Tomatoes
Um, yeah. So this might sort of ruin you so good. Because it’s that one meal that no matter which way you look at it, you can’t kick it out of your mouth. You can’t. And because I was feeling a bit nostalgic whilst listening to some Alanis Morrisette the other day, I added baby […]
Mushroom and Barley Risotto
With prosciutto crisps! Don’t punch me in the pancreas, vegetarians. Have you ever swapped in barley in place of arborio rice? Oh man you should. It’s crazy. Totally new take on risotto. I’m not new to barley risotto, I just hardly ever make it or think about it. Which isn’t rightly selling this, is it. […]
Risotto with Shrimp, Bacon and Zucchini
And peas! Risotto with Shrimp, Bacon, Zucchini and Peas. The peas part. I’d like to think of this mess as a late summer kitchen sink risotto thingy. I MEAN, you can make it any time of year really. But right now it’s summer, so I’m calling it summer. Only because the shrimp isn’t in season […]
Cajun Risotto with Crawfish Tails and Andouille Sausage
Still losing my mind over this and it’s been 15 hours. Because listen – CAJUN. RISOTTO. Not etouffee! Not jambalaya! Good old fashioned risotto, but crazy infused with cajun (creole, cajun, creole, cajun – let’s call the whole thing off) flavors. And on top of that, I used crawfish tails. But we need to discuss […]
Steel Cut Oats Risotto with Mushrooms and Chicken Sausage
As in, OATS. Oats oats. In risotto. Do you need to lie down? *This post is definitely in partnership with The Quaker Oats Company. But all total honesty and opinions are always my own, duders.* Listen to this insanity – this here recipe creation was my first ever time ever ever ever in the history […]
Risotto with Sausage, Brussels Sprouts and Sundried Tomatoes
Did you know that in ancient times, “autumn” actually translates to “eat risotto?” It does. But don’t try to look it up because Merriam and Webster had a fight last night and the site’s down. Don’t you just love risotto? I could snarf it year round, but I especially dig it during the fall, because […]
Roasted Garlic Compound Butter and Lemony Risotto
You know how when you get chills little bumps raise up all over your skin? “Goosies” as J-Lo calls them? Okay, when I get the chills, they raise up in little patches. And ONLY on my left arm. Like, random little goosie patches. My right arm is completely normal, chill bumps performing gorgeously in an […]
