This risotto was a great way to use up some leftover vegetables. The flavors were bright and summery, and the millet cooked perfectly. I will definitely be making this again.

This risotto was a bit bland for my taste. I think it could have used more seasoning. The vegetables were cooked well, but the millet was a bit mushy. I would probably try a different recipe next time.
