    My husband & I really liked this dish, however my 5 year old did not (no real surprise though. I used ground sage instead of fresh and just used 1/2 the amount. I also used less Parm/Reg cheese to lower the fat a little and used a little less wine but sub'd add'l liquid. I also used fresh butternut squash, cooked and mashed. -- I tried this recipe a few weeks later using sweet potatoes... didn't turn out very well.... I'll stick to the squash! As others noted, it did take longer than the 20 minutes, even without the fact that I cooked my own squash. This recipe is a keeper for the fall season!

    I wanted to try making risotto because my children love it. They order it at every restaurant and they all said it was every bit as good as any restaurant risotto. I made it totally vegetarian for my eldest daughter and I used more salt and pepper than the recipe called for. Also, I did not use the sage. Even my very picky 8-year-old loved it and she never eats vegies. I do not know what went wrong with the women who threw it away. All I can say is follow the directions and laddle in gradually and let the liquid evaporate. You could also add broccoli or asparagus to this dish, maybe even some shrimp would be delicious. I recommend this recipe to all risotto lovers out there.

    My teenage daughter and I both thought this was very yummy and deserved a repeat. It's a very good fall/winter dish; I thought it was good enough to serve to guests. I was surprised to read that the reviewer before me threw it out.

    I made Risotto in the past and decided to try this recipe. All I can say is yuk. It went into the garbage. So much work to make and not worth it.

    I have made risotto only a few times before and this was definitely the easiest and quickest risotto recipe I have ever made. The dish was very tasty, but took longer then the 18 min cook time. Once I added the parmesan it got quite sticky and kind of formed together, but tasted great and my guests enjoyed.

    I always look for recipes that can incorporate different types of vegetables and what a nice take on a risotto dish. Very flavorful and the kids couldn't get enough and didn't notice or even care whether it had butternut squash.
