This risotto was a bit too expensive to make for a regular weeknight meal. I think I would only make it again for a special occasion.

I found this risotto to be a bit too creamy. I think I would have preferred it with a little less butter or cream.

This risotto was a bit bland for my taste. I think I would have liked it better with some additional herbs or spices.

I've made this risotto several times now and it's always a hit. It's a great way to use up leftover spinach and barley, and it's also a very affordable dish to make.

I'm not a big fan of barley, but this risotto changed my mind. The barley was cooked perfectly and had a great texture. The spinach and parmesan added a lot of flavor, and the overall dish was very satisfying.

This risotto was a delightful surprise! The combination of spinach, barley, and parmesan cheese created a flavorful and satisfying dish. I especially enjoyed the texture of the barley, which added a nice chewiness to the risotto.
