Stay Cozy with Spring Risotto

My favorite thing about spring is the balance between beautiful produce and slightly chilly weather. This calls for still keeping it cozy with foods like risotto. This risotto celebrates my favorite spring vegetable: asparagus. In addition to the asparagus are bright spring onions, spinach and tons and tons of Parmesan. I have trouble making risotto without adding tablespoon after tablespoon of butter but I somehow managed to restrain myself at 4 tablespoonsits tough!

This risotto is delicious and warm yet still feels light and spring-like. It doesnt weight you down. The asparagus and spinach and onion puree add the most beautiful green hue to this risotto and since its added toward the end, it doesnt overcook. The lemon add just the perfect amount of brightness too.
