Ingredients

2 Tbsp. butter
1 onion, chopped
1 clove garlic, minced
1 cup Arborio rice, uncooked
1/4 cup dry white wine
3 cups vegetable broth, divided
1 lb. fresh asparagus spears, trimmed, cut into 1-inch lengths
1/4 cup KRAFT Grated Parmesan Cheese
2 oz. (1/4 of 8-oz. pkg.) PHILADELPHIA Neufchatel Cheese, cubed

Steps:

Melt butter in large saucepan on medium heat. Add onions and garlic; cook 2 to 3 min. or until crisp-tender, stirring frequently. Stir in rice; cook and stir 2 min. Add wine; cook and stir 1 min. or until absorbed.
Stir in 1/2 cup broth; cook on medium-low heat 4 min. or until most the broth is absorbed, stirring constantly. Repeat until all the broth has been added. (Rice should be tender, but firm. This will take about 25 min.)
Add asparagus and Parmesan: cook and stir 2 min. or until heated through. Remove from heat. Add Neufchatel; stir until melted.
