Fried Risotto!!mmmmm!

Just a quick note. I remembered somewhere that leftover risotto made into patties and fried were a treat. Well, aside for setting off my smoke alarm with the first try, they are. Shaped a 3/4 inch pattie about the size of a hamburger. Heated up the skillet with a little oil, I mean very little, and let her cook! About 3 minutes on each side.  Flipped it once and sprinkled a little bit of shaved parmesean cracked pepper and mmmm. Quick and easy. I'm taking one to work with a BIG salad for dinner tonite.

Face it, all my favorite foods tend to be crispy, not good for the behind if you know what I mean. Since my new friend Pam and I are challenging ourselves to get back into our skinny jeans this Summer post surgeries I'll be passing on the french fries!
