This is a really nice fall dish, took a little while to cook though. I didn't peel the squash before I steamed it - it peels more easily afterwards. Also, I used a veggie broth to make it vegetarian. very tasty.

Wonderful recipe. I only needed 4 cups of vegetable broth instead of 5 for 1 cup of arborio rice. I substituted white grape juice for the white wine, and added some fresh sage. DELICIOUS!

I LOVED this. My husband doesn't like squash, but he was able to eat this-- I'd consider that a success. I used 1 cup mashed squash. Next time, I'll go heavier on the onion and lighter on the parmesan. In addition, like other reviewers, I used only 3 cups of broth (as recommended on my bag of rice). This was plenty.

This was a huge hit at my house!! I used less stock/broth and the cook time was longer than stated but this would sell out in any restaurant in a heartbeat. Bravo!!

Quite yummy! My husband was skeptical, but he gave it "thumbs up" after tasting it! Great comfort food.

Wow, I really loved this risotto! I do have to say that I chopped my squash and cooked it before peeling as someone recommended and completely regretted it. I was chopping off squash skins for like 30 minutes. Fortunately, this is the most delicious thing I've eaten in quite some time. Taking another reviewer's advice, I only used 3 cups of chicken broth and it was perfect. Thanks for the recipe!

Yum! Followed others advice and only added 3 cups of stock. Didn't have an onion so added dehydrated onion flakes, some fresh garlic, asiago & parm and right at the end added some shredded kale for colour and extra vitamins! Great dish!

mmmmmmmmmmmm...it's worth all the work. i didn't read the reviews before i made it so i had a lot of stock left over (it really only needs about 2/3 what it calls for). i used vegetable broth, didn't have enough so i added about 8 oz of butternut squash soup - yummy.
