Let me start by saying that if you are a vampire, you will absolutely love mushrooms. Wait, what? You see, vampires like to hide from the sun, but this means that they are also missing out on vitamin D. Luckily, mushrooms are in fact the only source of this vitamin and the best part is that you are getting it without the ultraviolet B. Of course, this is not to say that you should avoid the sun altogether–it’s just to show how awesome mushrooms are. This combined with the ham proteins and the deliciousness of the risotto will make you instantly fall in love with the dish–vampire or not!
