Another #easyfancy dinner! This is a great “date night in” meal to cook as a couple. We love risotto night and it’s always fun to mix it up - whether that be the risotto itself, or what we serve with the Italian dish to make a meal. If you love spinach and artichoke dip, you’ll likely love this dish!

Read MoreI have tried a couple of different risotto recipes now and this has by far been the best recipe to yield quality results.
