This dinner bowl is packed with spinach, making it rich in nutrients and antioxidants. But spinach isn’t necessarily the predominant flavor. The hazelnuts, creamy risotto, and fresh ricotta cheese balance the flavor into something truly comforting and satisfying. There are also notes of basil, thyme, lemon, and Parmesan cheese.
Each serving contains over 18 grams of protein. But a serving also contains about 28% of the recommended daily max of sodium, so if you’re watching your sodium intake, you could use low sodium broth, unsalted butter, and skip the Parmesan.
