Cheesy Polenta with Basil-Tomato Sauce

Vegetarian Times Issue: April 1, 2006   p.80

30 minutes or fewer

 

Melted cheese, prepared marinara sauce and creamy polenta are an unbeatable comfort food combination. You can substitute powdered garlic and dried basil for their fresh counterparts, if they’re handier.

Directions

  1. Stir together marinara sauce, garlic and basil in medium-size microwave-safe bowl. Cover, and microwave on high 2 minutes, or until hot throughout. Keep covered, and set aside.
  2. Meanwhile, arrange polenta slices, overlapping them slightly, on plate. Top polenta with fontina cheese slices. Microwave on high 1 minute, or until cheese melts. Spoon marinara sauce over polenta, sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and serve.
