Mushroom, Sausages Risotto

Awkward combo for a Risotto.. I know.. but it tastes good and that’s all that matters. Someone asked me for a stuffed pepper recipe, so I thought I’d experiment a little. Here’s the Risotto part of the Stuffed Pepper recipe! The actual Stuffed Pepper recipe will be up in the next few days! Remember to check back if you’re interested!

3 tbsp butter

1 1/2 cups water

1 sausage

1/2 onion - finely diced

1. In a pot, melt 2 tbsp of the butter first.

2. Sautee the onions and garlic until they’re soft.

3. Add in the rice and sautee.

4. Gradually add in the whiskey then the mushrooms.
