Our New Favorite Side Dish

Our new favorite side dish!! These carrots have become quite the repeat dish lately! In fact, I think we had them with two meals this week and one last week!

The Dish So Good We Cooked it 3 Nights in a Row

Y’all already know risotto is our favorite. We love how you can dress it up or keep it simple and therefore we love trying to new risotto recipes any chance we get.
