I take you step by step on how to make this Italian rice dish.  I roast the butternut squash, for  delicious flavor.  

Let me not forget the real flavor enhancer, caramelizing the onion and mushroom and garlic.  You've got to do this step.  If you don't, you will have missed out on the amazing taste.

Fresh sage is a real boost too and goes perfect with this dish.  And let's not forget the toasted sliced almonds for a little crunch.  

This dish may take a little time to make but you will be rewarded.  

Ingredients:
3 cups, peeled, diced butternut squash
olive oil
salt
1 cup arborio rice
5 cups chicken broth
1 medium yellow onion, finely diced
1 cup finely diced mushrooms 
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 Tbsp. fresh sage, minced
1/3 cup parmesan cheese, grated
1/4 cup sliced almonds, toasted
1/4 heaping tsp. ground turmeric
1/3 cup white wine

You can easily double this recipe and I recommend it because it's so good.  It freezes well too.
