Guest Blog: Monterey Jack, Corn, and Roasted Red Pepper Risotto

Hello Carrots N’ Cake readers!

I have been toying around with the idea of starting a food blog for a little while now, and just recently, I started my own (www.foodforliving.wordpress.com). While preparing one of my favorite recipes to make (and eat!) the other night, I snapped a few photos: I give you, Cooking Light’s Monterey Jack, Corn, and Roasted Red Pepper Risotto – what a mouthful (pun intended). The pictures are just okay, but the end result is delicious.

Here are the ingredients needed for the risotto:
The next few pics show the risotto at different stages of the cooking process – from the dry rice to the completed meal.

Visit http://find.myrecipes.com/recipes/recipefinder.dyn?action=displayRecipe&recipe_id=226425 to see the complete recipe and cooking instructions. If you haven’t made risotto yet, give this healthy, yummy, and easy recipe a try. Enjoy!

-Lauren

    you did such an amazing job making that risotto – and I don’t think your pictures are bad at all, actually really nice and clear! I’ve just recently started a blog as well and I love it!

    It’s strange to see these photos from the kitchen in our Houston house! I sure do miss that kitchen, but I’m sooo glad to be back in Boston :)
    It’s ironic that you posted this tonight, because I’m making butternut squash risotto with wheat berries tonight!

    yum! a few of my favorite things – too bad I don’t eat dairy anymore :(

    I wonder how Trader Joe’s frozen ROASTED corn would be in this!!!
