Making the perfect risotto takes skill, practice and lots and lots of stirring time.  I’ve heard conflicting arguments of why risotto is so difficult to make.  Some say it’s all about the type of rice used.  Others say it all depends on the stock selection and the temperature of the stock when added to the cooking process.  I’ve even heard that it takes constant and slow stirring to reach that perfect creamy consistency.

Well, now I don’t have to worry about my risotto anymore.  When I heard Knorr just released a new Selects™ Four Cheese Risotto, I was ecstatic to give it a try and top it with some of my favorite ingredients.  Looking through ViveMejor.com, I was inspired by their recipe of Garlic Shrimp Risotto.  I decided to replace the shrimp with roasted cauliflower and give it a bit of a crunch with roasted chickpeas.  The result was heavenly!  The creamy four cheese sauce is the perfect base for the addition of a protein or a vegetable.  My son loved it so much that he asked for seconds!  A winner in my book!
