Asparagus Risotto with Peas and Mint {vegan}
I made some delicious risotto. It’s asparagus risotto with peas and mint to be exact. But before I tell you about it, I want to tell you all about how I was inspired to make it. And it involves a really fun day in Sicily with my dear ‘ole dad. There was no way I […]
