Sweet Potato Risotto
Oh my gosh, guys… this is a MUST TRY recipe!!! HOLY YUM! 
It’s from the November 2008 issue of Real Simple magazine.
I rarely follow a recipe exactly, but I did tonight… and WOW! Yay for leftovers!!! Mal doesn’t like sweet potatoes, so you guys will be seeing these babies for a few days to come. Let’s hope I can get creative with them! 
Time for How I Met Your Mother, then BED! Good night!

OMG! Risotto is my <3 , (p.s.: runeatrepeat, you don’t like risotto?!?!?! :-O ) my favourite type of risotto is mushroom risotto, I ALWAYS ALWAYS get them when I go to the restaurant, so DELISH!!!!! Phew *breathe* ok, so … do you think parmesan cheese is a MUST in risotto?? And did you use those cheap kraft parmesan (which is what I have in my pantry
or did you use the gourmet ones?? Thank you for reading this 
Have a great day!!

I love risotto and it’s my standard rice dish. I tweak it to include left over meats, left over veggies, whatever. In fact, I made this with an extra piece of squash I had in the fridge. Once you have the recipe down, it becomes second nature and you can make it a hundred different ways! Yummmy

I came across your blog a few days ago and absolutely love it. I saw this recipe you made for Sweet Potato Rissoto and you had given it such a rave review that I had to try it for dinner last night. I absolutely loved it! Great taste, nutritionally sound, and REAL SIMPLE. I’m a working grad student and it fit perfectly into my schedule.
Your blog is great and good luck with Lose the Dough – sometimes calorie counting for a few days is what you need to realize your minor slip ups, give it a shot again and I’m sure you’ll be seeing the pounds drop right off soon enough!
