A quick meal of risotto with spinach and parmesan and checca with Italian bread. Don’t tell anyone…but the risotto was made in the microwave. You can’t tell the difference and its way less work. A great tip I picked up at realgoodfood.com, a great source for cooking tips, PDX restaurant reviews and the best olive oil and sea salt around.

And a close up of the checca…Dana’s specialty……look at all that garlic!
