This simple and satisfying Pumpkin, Mushroom and Sage Brown Rice Risotto!

It’s a new recipe that is so delicious and perfect for any night of the week or it also works well as leftovers for lunch any day of the week.

Wholegrain brown rice is a cute little swap out that you can make, as the fibre helps to lower cholesterol (along with sage) and it also aids digestion.
