Roasted Tomato and Smoked Bacon Risotto (Gluten Free, Dairy Free)

Hello everyone, welcome to my latest recipe for Gluten Free and Dairy Free Roasted Tomato and Smoked Bacon Risotto.

I've had the picture of this recipe in the rotating banner at the top of my newly designed website for a couple of weeks now.  I've just noticed that I've never actually shared it as a recipe post before.

Risotto is one of my favourites - you can have a delicious meal on the table in under 30 minutes.  You can also make it using standard items you already have in your fridge and store cupboard.
