Ultimate vegan comfort food that is both delicious and super healthy! Make a big batch and have lunches ready for the week!","instructions":"
  1. Heat some vegetable oil in a large pot on medium heat. Finely chop the onion and add, stirring occasionally.<\/li>
  2. After a few minutes, add the crushed garlic cloves and finely chopped leek.<\/li>
  3. Leave this to saute for a few minutes, making sure to stir so it doesn't burn.<\/li>
  4. Next add the arborio rice, and stir until the outside of the rice is slightly translucent.<\/li>
  5. Add the stock a ladle or two at a time, making sure to stir often so it doesn't stick to the bottom of the pot. Do this until the rice is soft on the outside with a bite on the inside. It will take about 15-20 minutes. You may not need all the stock, or you may need a little more.<\/li>
  6. Whilst the risotto is cooking make your pesto. Juice the lemons and add all the ingredients apart from the oil into a blender or nutribullet and blitz until the nuts have broken down. Then add or slowly pour in the oil until it is smooth and creamy.<\/li>
  7. When the risotto is almost cooked, add in the chopped spring greens and frozen peas and let cook for a couple of minutes.<\/li>
  8. Stir in the pesto, top with some vegan parmesan and serve!<\/li><\/ol>","instructions_with_ads":"

      Best eaten fresh but will keep for 1-2 days in an airtight container, or you can freeze it.<\/p>

      You can switch the spring greens for kale or spinach, whatever you have on hand or is in
