Weekly Menu Plan #60

Sometimes, when new things are tried, the outcome is quite exciting.  Other times, it's not.  This week, I uses saffron for the very first time in a risotto recipe from last week (pictured above is this dish in progress).  I am in love.  How has it take this long for it to be used in my kitchen?  Maybe because it's one of the most expensive spices known to man.  But my, that is a yummy splurge to make every now and then.
