I love cheesy risotto. So much that when I was pregnant with Landon and got this served to me, I ate just this and ordered a second order to take home. It was worth every pound!
I have been making this since and love it as a side or sometimes just as a special treat for myself. You can substitute different cheeses in the recipe but these give it the best taste from what I have tasted so far.
