🥛MilkSwaps and substitutions
For dairy-free, replace the Parmesan with a plant-based hard cheese or nutritional yeast for a similar savory finish. For gluten-free or lower-carb needs, swap the Arborio rice with gluten-free risotto rice if available, or try cauliflower rice for a lighter bowl.
What to serve with it
Serve with a crisp green salad or roasted mushrooms to add contrast and make the meal feel more complete. A chilled white wine, sparkling water with lemon, or warm crusty bread also pairs nicely with the bright, savory flavors.
