Chicken Risotto

I had a date night with one of my best friends and she desperately wanted to learn to make Risotto. I'm a believer of the saying, "If you can read, you can cook" (the same is not true for baking). I'd never made risotto but I figured, Why not? It can't be that hard. And it wasn't.

I'm pretty sure I did this exact recipe except I only used 2 or 3 Chicken breasts (as I'm not the biggest fan), used onion flakes instead of an onion and used basmati rice instead of regular rice. But I don't think any of these things had a huge impact on the recipe itself. I also added spinach, because in my opinion you just don't get enough greens.

About Me

Thanks for checking out my blog! In return, here's a little about me.

I moved out of my parents house when I was 22. The only thing I could make well was Mac and Cheese - the real kind at least. I decided I would start trying new recipes, new spices and new foods. I started this blog as a way to review to myself how I liked the recipe, what I would change if I made it again and if I would even make it again.

I'm very lucky to have a great man around who doesn't mind my occasional screw ups. It may be because he gets to eat them. Being able to share what I love with people close to me, and not so close is one of the many reasons I love to cook and bake.

I'm a big believer in the saying, "If you can read, you can cook". Maybe not bake but its not that hard either - I promise. I also don't think that the things you read should have to cost money. You don't have to go out and buy a cookbook anymore. That's not saying don't - because sometimes its totally worth it, but the internet is filled with recipes!

Here's my take on a few, my favourites and some tips along the way. Also, check my links for some of my favourite bloggers, food sites and feel free to follow me on Twitter, @J_Weds.

Thanks again!
