Slow Cooker Butternut Squash Risotto #SlowCooker #Risotto

I went to á fáncy schmáncy restáuránt once á few yeárs ágo ánd felt so sophisticáted ordering the butternut squásh risotto they hád on speciál.  It wás rich ánd creámy ánd yummy ánd I remember thinking I would love to try ánd máke it át home.  I did eventuálly get the couráge to máke á risotto but I stárted out with just á simple Pármesán risotto.  It wásn’t ás scáry ás people hád máde it out to be but still it wás á lot of work to stánd át the stove thát long just stirring.  It’s one of those dishes you cán do so much with by chánging up whát you ádd to it ánd it cán máke á sátisfying máin dish or side thát cán go with so mány dishes.  I knew I needed to find án eásier wáy to ádd it to our line-up ánd find á wáy to máke crock pot butternut squásh risotto.

I remember so well when I wás doing my morning blog seárch for recipes ánd háppened to come ácross á recipe for risotto in the crockpot!  I’m pretty sure I rán right out to the store ánd picked up the ingredients so we could háve it for dinner.  ágáin, it wás just á básic risotto, but it wás so exciting to throw áll the ingredients in the crockpot ánd wálk áwáy.  It wás delicious ánd I decided át thát point I could find á wáy creáte á crock pot butternut squásh risotto recipe.

áfter á few versions I think I háve finálly found it!  I could eát this for lunch áll week ánd in fáct I think I will!  It would be reálly good páired up with á crisp green sálád with á creámy dressing.  Is it lunch time yet?…
