Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 1 1/2-quart casserole dish.
- Combine cherry tomatoes, basil, garlic, red wine, and 1/8 teaspoon salt for marinara in the bowl of a food processor. Pulse a few times to puree. Set aside.
- Bring water and 1/2 teaspoon salt to a boil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Whisk in polenta slowly, whisking constantly to ensure there are no lumps. Bring back to a boil; reduce heat to low and cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in Pecorino Romano cheese and butter.
- Pour half of the polenta into the prepared casserole dish. Top with half of the sliced zucchini, overlapping slices slightly. Top zucchini with half of the marinara sauce, then sprinkle with half of the Italian-style cheese. Repeat layers one more time. Cover.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes. Uncover and continue to bake until cheese on top is slightly brown, about 10 minutes more. Remove from the oven and let stand for 5 minutes before serving.

- Fry the onion in the olive oil in a large, heavy pot over medium high heat until translucent and just starting to brown.
- Next, add the remaining 2 cups of water to the cornmeal placed in a bowl, and stir to moisten. This technique of adding water to the dry ingredient will ensure that you will avoid lumps. However, do not add the water to the polenta until just before adding it to the pot. Add half a teaspoon of Kosher salt at this time, taste and add more as needed.
- Immediately add the wet polenta to the pot before the water comes to a boil. Continue stirring, and cook over medium heat (it should be bubbling) for about 25 minutes. Keep scraping the bottom to make sure the polenta doesn't stick. Be careful not to let it boil too fast or the polenta may bubble which is painful if it squirts onto your hand.

- Add the water or milk, grits, and salt to a medium saucepan, off the heat, and stir. Let sit until the grits have settled to the bottom and chaff has risen to the top, about 5 minutes. With a small, fine-mesh strainer, skim chaff from the top of the liquid and discard.
- Place over medium-high heat and bring the water to a simmer while whisking gently but constantly. Continue to simmer and whisk until the grits have released enough starch so that the individual particles are suspended, 5 to 7 minutes. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and cook, stirring every 5 minutes, until the grits are cooked, about 1 hour.
- Remove from the heat, whisk in butter and cover until ready to serve. You can let it sit this way for up to 1 hour before serving. If held longer than 1 hour, you will need to add warm water, 1 tablespoon at a time, to loosen up the grits.
