The Giadzy, Giada De Laurentiis's blog, just shared a roundup of more than 50 healthy recipes from Giada's kitchen that will help you feel a little better this month. This collection of recipes has something for everyone, since it includes dairy-free and gluten-free options, plus comfort foods, desserts and veggie-packed meals. Add a comment...
The actual recipe has a few additional ingredients that you don't see De Laurentiis add — like two cloves of garlic, a shallot, and 1/2 cup of dry white wine. I followed the recipe on her website because it gave those crucial extra details on how long to cook the risotto .

First, she uses canned Datterini tomatoes that she drains and mushes down in the pot to create a saucy, soupy texture. Then, she adds chicken broth straight from the carton — no heating required, which means you don't have to dirty a second pot (that's a huge win in my book).
