Barley Risotto with Leeks and Mushrooms

This Barley Risotto with Leeks and Mushrooms is so savory you'd never guess it was actually healthy. This vegetarian recipe is made with only nine ingredients, and even though risotto requires a lot of attention to cook, it's not complicated. I feel like leeks and barley are both delicious but underutilized. I'm sure you'll feel the same way after making this. This dish is light but hearty and heats up well for leftovers the next day. If you don't use butter or grated cheese, this meal can be made completely vegan as well.
