This vegan pancakes recipe calls for 10 simple ingredients that you likely have in your pantry right now.

Mushroom Risotto

For a delicious, elegant main dish, make this mushroom risotto recipe! It's rich and creamy, made with white wine, fresh herbs, and Parmesan cheese.

My ideal Valentine’s Day would involve staying in and making this mushroom risotto recipe. My husband Jack LOVES mushrooms, and I love making risotto for date nights. They’re those rare occasions when you actually want to stand at the stove, stirring and stirring and stirring, because you’re also spending time with someone you love. The fact that all that stirring results in a comforting, flavorful meal is just the cherry on top. Realistically, we probably won’t make this mushroom risotto for Valentine’s Day this year (thinking it would be hard to pull off with a toddler running around!). But if…
