Sun Dried Tomato Asparagus Risotto - just 6 ingredients and 1 pot!

Hello, 36th Avenue friends!! I am so happy to be back here with you today, and I am so happy it’s finally MAY!! Not only does that mean summer is well on its way, but May is the month of my due date! The countdown has officially begun.

Of course, since my due date isn’t until the 19th….and since I have had to be induced 8 days late with all three of my other kids…..I am expecting a rather LONG countdown. Either way, though, our baby girl will have a May birthday and this will be the last month of my pregnancy!

It’s funny – for months I have wanted nothing more than to just be done (I guess that’s what happens when you have three other little ones to chase around!) but now that it’s almost here, I’m okay with her taking her time. After all, life with four kids isn’t going to be easy! One of the things I’m most worried about? How in the world I’m going to get dinner on the table!

Which is why it’s great to have recipes like this risotto up my sleeve – one pot, six ingredients, and something the whole family will love! Because, quite honestly, I’m going to have more important things to worry about than what’s for dinner. I’ll just be sure to have the ingredients for this one on hand!
