This was so so so good! I kept mmming the whole time we were eating it. and love that it's truly a one pan meal. I'm admittedly going to be that person who made a bunch of alterations but I know Caro always encourages subs so I feel like this is a safe space lol.
-Added a bag of spinach
-Did a whole onion instead of the shallot
-Halved the sausage and added mushrooms
-Did water + better than bouillon for the stock and left out the milk
-Nixed the cheddar and just did the parm
This formula for 'orzotto' is just so wonderful. I feel like I can get creative with it! I was considering going the butternut squash + sage route - so maybe I'll try that next time!
I used pastina & an annoying amount of arborio I had left to make this tonight and it’s delicious! I was unsure it would work about halfway through… but it totally worked— may be my fav way I’ve made this. pastina is so fun.
I used sweet potato instead of butternut squash and served some chicken sausage and green beans on the side. The whole fam (20 month old included) loved it!
Yummmm! I def had to add a good bit more water and stir the pot frequently so that it didn't stick. But my gas stove runs pretty hot! I stirred in a 5oz bag of spinach and it was the perfect amount. So tasty and comforting without feeling too too heavy. Also just love a true one pot meal. I made this on a Sunday night but it could easily be a weeknight meal.
Its like grown-up hamburger helper! I made this for a friend last night and she exclaimed. "this is the best thing you've ever made!" and I've cooked a bunch for her. Could have been that she had just gotten home from a trip and a 12 hour day in the airport, but hey I'll still take the credit. Fairly simple, just lots of chopping, made a HUGE batch. I added some spinach to make myself feel healthy. Would be great for a meal train. We loved it, thank you!
I made this tonight with arborio. My husband had three helpings and my 3 year old said "I wuv dis" and made up a risotto dance. So I'd say it was a hit!
The raw kind of chicken sausage! Like not the precooked links. They always sell it in a tube at Whole Foods for sure!
Could you swap cauliflower for some of the risotto?

Forgot to buy orzo (hand to face) so swapped mini bowtie pasta and it came out so so good! I just cut the liquid measurement to 3 cups :) delish
Mmmm just made this. So good, and so easy! I added in several handfuls of baby kale and some white pepper. 🤤
This was so delicious! Perfect for lots of leftovers too!
This was so good! Didn’t have cheddar so subbed Gruyère and it was delish!

For a veg sub would you just omit the sausage? Maybe add more shallot or something to account for the lost flavor?

This is AMAZING!!!!!!
Would 2% work instead of whole??

Yum! Made this tonight with gluten free orzo and it was amazing. Can’t wait for the leftovers!
