ROW: The 99 Cent Chef's Mushroom Risotto

When we chose Frederico Fellini’s Oyster Mushroom Risotto as Recipe of the Week, we did it for a few reasons:

1. We like the 99 Cent Chef.  Nothing wrong with eating well for cents on the dollar- everything in this recipe was bought at the 99cent store!
2. We liked the dinner and a movie-style theme work. “Cinematic Palate Pleaser” indeed.
3. Michelle Obama approves.   We were thrilled to see the First Lady call out mushroom risotto as an affordable, healthy and delicious idea for soup kitchens in yesterday’s New York Times!

*If you’d like a chance to be Recipe of the Week, stop by Help Peter Cook to submit your ideas for this week’s ingredients including portabella mushrooms- we’ll feature the winner next Wednesday!
