Tip

This is one of my husbands favourites and until I got my TM the only way we ate it was if he cooked it cause I hated the preparation!  Now of course its super easy with my TM.  The recipe is converted from a Weight Watchers recipe (Pure Points cookbook).  The recipe states that it serves 4 and that it provides 7 points for those familiar with the weight watchers points system.

    This was delicious. The flavours were really good. Loved the hint of chilli. I added 2 tablespoons of stock as others had suggested. I also added a bunch of asparagus cut up into 3cm pieces. Will make again.

    Family loved this.
    used Pumpkin instead of sweet potato next time i will use less Vege Paste as I felt the salt content too high.

    Most tastiest risotto I have ever had. Soooo good. And kept me full for ages.

    Used onion as as no leek and passata as not fresh tomatoes and still turned out great. Next time I’m adding less water replaced with wine.

    Sooo yummy. The first time I made it (using short grain brown rice) the rice was really undercooked so I ended up having to throw the whole thing out (didn't want overcooked chicken).
    I tried it again but pre-cooked the rice for 10 min and it came out delicious! A bit too much water for my preference, it's more like a soup! But I'll add less water next time and I think this will be one of my favorites.

    Just a bit bland for my liking & I put too much chilli in for my kids tmrc_emoticons.( But I think it would be a big winner for my kids minus chilli & I added broccoli & sugar snap peas in the last 3 mins.
