The ingredients for Pumpkin and Cranberry Risotto are:

4 cups vegetable broth
1 T light butter/margarine
1 T olive oil
1/2 cup chopped onion
1 1/2 c arborio rice
1/2 c dry white wine
1 c pumpkin
1/2 c dried cranberries
5 T grated parmesan cheese
s&p to taste (I don't add any salt since it's salty enough from the broth and cheese)

Here is how you make Pumpkin and Cranberry Risotto:

Bring the broth to boil, then turn to low and keep it warm.Melt butter and olive oil at medium-high heat in a medium-large pot. Add the onion and cook, stirring frequently for 2 minutes. Add the arborio rice, and stir frequently for another 2 minutes. Add the wine, and stir frequently until all liquid is absorbed. Stir in the pumpkin.Add 3/4 cup broth and reduce heat. Simmer and stir until all liquid is absorbed. (Will still be creamy because of pumpkin.) Continue to add 1/2 cup of broth at a time, stirring frequently. This should take 30-45 minutes. The rice will be creamy and soft (not crunchy), but also not mushy. When all the liquid has been absorbed, stir in the cranberries and parmesan cheese. Add s&p to your liking.This makes about 5 cups - so either 5-6 servings as a side dish, or about 3 servings as a main course.Number of Servings: 5Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user JKAPLAN86.
