Risotto with Butternut Squash, Leeks, and Basil


I made a healthy risotto. I know, I know, Carson still doesn't believe that's possible. But minus the carb infested starch, there was no cream, no butter, no wine (minus what I drank). Vegetable broth and under a cup of Parmesan cheese! Well maybe I added more than a cup, but still. It was delicious! I had never made risotto before and found it to be pretty easy! You definitely have to babysit the dish while you cook, but I love babysitting food. Find the recipe HERE.
