Pork Risotto with Olives and Capers
Fresh Fruit

Cooking time:  30 minutes for menu      Cooking schedule: see below for instructions

      Risotto is my favorite way to use leftovers.  I used the rest of the Leek Sauce in this as well, so I only use half an onion with the rice.  The Leek Sauce made it a bit darker than normal risottos.... But delicious!

Pork Risotto with Olives and Capers

Total time: 30 minutes 
    Notes are given at the end for making it without the leftovers.  The carrots add color and crunch; the olives and capers add tartness and lighten the Leek Sauce.

Note:  To make without leftovers use 6 - 8oz (200gr) pork or one chicken breast, cut into small pieces and sautéed in a bit of olive oil, add 1/2 onion, sautéed, and increase hot chicken stock by 1/4 cup.
