      I recently discovered mushroom risotto and thought I'd give this recipe a try. It's definitely got good flavor and was very easy to make. I'm not a big thyme fan, so I would probably make it with 1/2 what the recipe calls for next time. Great side dish!

      This turned out great. Husband said it needed more cheese, but that's because he thinks everything needs more cheese. I tweaked the recipe by adding some dried onion, garlic powder, and black pepper (while cooking the dish instead of a garnish) and it rounded out the flavor nicely. I didn't dice my mushrooms, either, because I prefer a big chunky mushroom in my dishes.

      Texture was OK, but had an off flavor, could by my dried Thyme was too old. Will try again in the stroganoff to see if I still get that funny back note flavor
