  • 1 small onion finely chopped
  • 8 oz. mushrooms sliced
  • 1 cup Arborio rice
  • 1/2 c. dry white wine
  • 4 c. French Onion Soup I used a 32 oz. carton Pacific French Onion Soup *For a less intense french onion flavor, replace 1 cup of the soup with water.

Instructions

  • In a large stockpot or skillet, heat oil over med-high heat.
  • Add sausage and onion; cook 5 minutes, breaking sausage apart.
  • Add mushrooms and continue cooking until sausage is no longer pink.
  • Add rice and stir constantly to toast, about 1 min.
  • Add wine and cook, stirring, until liquid is absorbed.
  • Reduce heat to medium. Add 1 cup soup and stir continuously until liquid is fully absorbed. Continue stirring and add soup 1/2 cup at a time, waiting until it has been fully absorbed before adding more.
