BEET RISOTTO WITH GREENS

Directions

• Bring stock to simmer on stove. Heat the butter in a wide pot, add onion, and cook over medium heat 3 minutes, stirring frequently.
• Add the rice, stir to coat it well, and cook for 1 minute. Add the wine and simmer until it's absorbed, then stir in half the parsley, the basil, grated beets, and the chard(or other greens).
• Add 2 cups stock, cover, and cook at a fast simmer until stock is absorbed.
• Begin adding the remaining stock in 1/2 cup increments, stirring constantly until each addition is absorbed before adding the next. When you have 1 cup left, add the beet greens or spinach.
• Taste for salt, season with pepper, then stir in the lemon zest and juice to taste.
• Serve with Goat cheese, the remaining parsley, and walnuts.
