CREAMY POLENTA FOR 2



Creamy Polenta for 2 image

Super creamy, tasty polenta, made especially for 2 people. As far as creamy polenta goes, this recipe is pretty fool-proof. Starting the liquids off cold prevents clumps from forming. I've been using this recipe now for a while and it's pretty forgiving. Cheers!

EASY MICROWAVE POLENTA



Easy Microwave Polenta image

My mom used to make this for us kids when we were little. We ate it with fried eggs instead of toast or bread. Sometimes we had it with syrup on it like pancakes. I still make and love this. I had this with eggs this morning. Really brings back childhood memories for me. May keep in refrigerator several days. Use an old metal ice cube tray (minus divider) or pan equal to that size, or use a couple of canned vegetable cans, emptied and washed and sprayed with butter spray.

PRESTO POLENTO (MICROWAVE)



Presto Polento (Microwave) image

Simple peasant food, polenta provides the perfect foil for spicy dishes. Offer it as a side dish, embellished with butter and Parmesan cheese; or serve it as you would pasta, topped with your favorite meat or tomato sauce. Polenta also makes a good breakfast. Once you've cooked it, pack it into a loaf pan; let cool, then cover and refrigerator until thoroughly chilled. Slice the polenta 1/2-inch thick, brown the slices in butter, and serve with maple syrup. This recipe is from the Sunset Microwave Main Dishes cookbook. Please note: This recipe was cooked and tested on a 700-watt microwave. If your microwave is a higher wattage, you may want to lower the cooking power.
