Spring Green Risotto image

Once a week I create a new recipe for my blog, An Officer and a Vegan. I first made this risotto when I needed something cheerful and comforting. It would be fantastic with asparagus, zucchini or summer squash, but use whatever veggies are in season. -Deanna McDonald, Grand Rapids, Michigan

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my risotto turned out really gummy. I think I stirred it too much.

This risotto was a disaster! The rice was undercooked and the whole thing was way too salty.

This risotto was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either.

I followed the recipe exactly but my risotto came out too soupy. I think I added too much liquid.

This risotto was a bit too bland for my taste. I think I'll add more herbs and spices next time.
