Step 1
In a large saucepan, melt the 2 tbsp butter over medium heat. Add the 2 cups mixed vegetables and cook until slightly softened, about 5 minutes.
Step 2
Stir in the 1 cup arborio rice and cook for 1-2 minutes until the rice is coated and slightly translucent.
Step 3
Add the 3 cups vegetable broth, one ladle at a time, stirring frequently. Wait until each addition is absorbed before adding more, about 15-20 minutes total.
Step 4
When the rice is creamy and tender, remove from heat. Stir in the 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese and season with salt and pepper to taste.
Step 5
Let stand for 2 minutes before serving. Garnish with extra Parmesan if desired.
