So this week, I have some delicious low fat recipes featuring rice. Where possible use whole grain rice to maximise nutrition. Mushroom Risotto Risotto can be a great comfort food dish, yet it also manages to be light enough for warmer spring weather. Risotto is also a great main course if you need to eat gluten free, so long as you make sure your broth is a gluten-free brand. And if you're feeding vegetarian friends, be sure to use vegetable broth rather than chicken broth.
