I'm giving this recipe two stars because the risotto was creamy and flavorful. However, the spinach and mushrooms were completely undercooked. I would recommend cooking the vegetables for longer next time.

This recipe was a disaster! The risotto never thickened, and the spinach and mushrooms were completely overcooked. I would not recommend this recipe to anyone.

I thought this recipe was just okay. The risotto was creamy and flavorful, but the spinach and mushrooms were a bit bland. I would recommend adding more vegetables or herbs to give it more flavor.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my risotto turned out really mushy. I think I might have added too much liquid. I would recommend being careful not to overcook the rice.

This recipe was a bit too expensive for my taste. The ingredients were all pretty pricey, and I ended up spending over $20 on this dish.

I found this recipe to be a bit too time-consuming. It took me over an hour to make, and I had to keep stirring the risotto constantly. I would recommend using a slow cooker or Instant Pot to make this dish instead.

This recipe was a bit too bland for my taste. I would recommend adding more salt and pepper, and maybe some other herbs or spices, to give it more flavor.
