As far as avocado dishes go, this is not only simple it’s delicious. This no-stir, baked avocado risotto is creamy and delicious and blunt to be your new favorite.

Fall is almost upon us and that means the oven will be on for more than just cakes and cookies around here…

the other night, it actually felt cold!

It wasn’t really cold, but it was over 100 during the day and dropped more than 30 degrees and it was a little breezy, so it seemed cold!

This is a super-easy way to prepare risotto.

No standing over the stove stirring going on with this one…

just mix it all up and pop it in the oven.

I love how it never looks like much going in the oven, but when it comes out…

WOW, it’s magic!

When you take it out of the oven, the avocado will have softened and all you need to do is give it a quick stir when you add in the remaining liquid and tablespoon of butter, add some salt and pepper and you are all set to serve it.

    I started drooling as soon as I saw that photo. Seriously. I love me some risotto and adore avocado so this is a match made in heaven for me. I have to admit that I was a bit thrown when I saw that ‘cold’ was in the 70’s. Of course, if it’s been 100 earlier, it’s understandable. 🙂

    Avocados are one of the best things in the world, so this is perfect!! It has been in the upper 80’s here recently, I am definitely ready for a little bit cooler weather.

    I love making risotto in the oven, but have never thought of putting avocado in it-that would be fabulous! Can’t wait to make this. Pinned.

    Just popped by to say hello, and this photo absolutely grabbed me! I wanted to eat this … NOW! I love risotto … but am so with you on needing quick, easy recipes! Yep … not a lot of time for standing and stirring at dinnertime! This is a brilliantly perfect solution, and I love the creaminess of the lusciously rich yet heart-healthy avocado! This is a phenomenal find! 😀
