If you've ever made risotto you know it is a time-consuming dish to make. I have a trick that can save you the effort and still have this satisfying meal. Make it in the crockpot. That's right, risotto without the stirring! This is one of my favorite meatless meals since it is full of flavor and easy to make.
I like to double the recipe to ensure plenty of leftovers or to feed a crowd. Please excuse the picture; it was steamy under the lid! This recipe is a copy in my interesting short hand. I actually followed the original since the crockpot makes it easy.
