Paella is a classic Spanish dish that will win over any crowd! It is packed with tons of vegetables and is so rich in flavour. People will think you were in the kitchen preparing all day but this recipe is really so easy to make.  The Arborio rice is perfect to absorb large amounts of broth and leaves a little more crunchy texture to the dish. Saffron is also an incredible ingredient that is full of antioxidants.

  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1/4 teaspoon saffron threads
  • 1 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 red bell pepper, sliced thinly
  • 1 yellow pepper, sliced thinly

  • 2 large garlic cloves, minced
