paragiraffe I love arugula.

Risotto with Italian sausage, caramelized onions and bitter greens

For Christmas Santa brought me Cooking Light Annual Recipes 2009, because, man, I love me some Cooking Light. They do such an amazing job with their recipes, and I’ve passed off the results as not light at all.

Tonight I made this risotto with Italian sausage, caramelized onions and bitter greens. I loved it, and I would eat it again and again. The use of arugula, in particular, was really stellar.

I have to say, I got a kick out of the couple people who complained about the fussiness of this recipe in the reviews. It’s risotto! What did you expect?

That does look delish! I never thought to add a meat (or a veggie meat in my case) to risotto. Granted I’ve only had risotto once, but I was always under the impression that it was made with veggies only. This is definitely something I would try out.
