Pumpkin Risotto With Garlic and Sage

Pumpkin Risotto With Garlic and Sage

Risotto is comfort food, pure and simple, but it can be loaded with high-fat ingredients. That’s why we created this delicious, lighter version with pumpkin, sage, and brown arborio rice.

Pro tip: If you can’t find it, regular brown rice will do.
