CORN RISOTTO WITH TOMATOES & SPINACH
Corn and tomatoes make this risotto taste like summer itself, but you can stir in almost any vegetables that your family likes. Make this simple entree vegetarian by swapping in vegetable broth or "no-chicken" broth for the chicken broth.

Steps:
- Heat broth in a medium saucepan over medium-low heat until steaming.
- Melt butter in a large pot over medium heat. Add shallots and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 2 minutes. Add garlic and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Add rice, salt and pepper and cook, stirring frequently, until the rice begins to turn translucent, about 1 minute. Add wine and cook, stirring constantly, until it has evaporated, about 1 minute.
- Add 1 cup of the hot broth and cook, stirring occasionally, until the liquid is absorbed, 1 to 2 minutes. Continue adding the broth, 1/2 cup at a time, stirring frequently and waiting until it has been absorbed before adding more, until you've added all the broth, about 20 minutes.
- Add corn, spinach and tomatoes and stir until the spinach is wilted, about 1 minute. Remove from heat; stir in Parmesan. Serve the risotto topped with basil and more cheese, if desired.

Steps:
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the corn and cook until slightly tender, about 3 minutes. Remove with tongs, reserving the boiling water. Let the corn cool slightly, then cut off the kernels.

- Meanwhile, cook the pappardelle in the corn water as the label directs. Reserve 1 cup of the cooking water, then drain the pasta. Add the chicken broth and corn kernels to the skillet and bring to a simmer.
- Add the pasta to the skillet; add the scallions, parmesan, the remaining 3 tablespoons butter and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Toss to combine, adding the reserved cooking water as needed. Season with salt and pepper. Top with more parmesan and basil.
