Healthy Risotto

Hi friends,

This week I bring you a new but old recipe that I truly like: Risotto.

Who doesn’t like risotto? Right! We all do.
I come up with this recipe a year ago or so, but for some reason I didn’t posted it before.

So here it goes.

Enjoy

Healthy risotto

Ingredients

• 1 cup brown rice or black rice

• 1 large onions finely chopped
• 1 clove garlic, crushed
• 1 teaspoon fresh parsley minced
• salt and ground black pepper
• 1 1/2 cups fresh mushrooms (I use Shitake)
• 1 cup Almond milk unsweetened
• 1/4 cup fat-free half ricotta
• 2 cups with 1 Tbsp. of olive oil and water (to substitute the chicken broth)
• 1 teaspoon unsalted butter
• 1/2 cup low-fat Parmesan cheese, grated SIM
Optional: 100gr chicken

Directions

Coat a large skillet in cooking coconut spray and place over medium-high heat.

Add the onion and garlic and sauté until onion is tender. Stir in the parsley, salt, pepper, and mushrooms. Reduce heat to low and cook until mushrooms have softened. Add the chicken (if you are adding it as an option)

Add the milk and cream to the skillet, mix everything, then stir in the rice. Bring to a simmer, then stir in the water and olive oil, one cup at a time, until it is absorbed by the rice.

Once the rice is finished cooking, stir in the butter and cheese, let cheese melt for a minute, then remove from heat.

And don't forget the main ingredient: LOVE :)
