For many years, I have been invested in using whole, natural, and organic ingredients and products. As often as possible, I purchase my produce and groceries from local farmer's markets. This is my food, recipe, and lifestyle journal. Some recipes I post are mine. More are found in books, websites, or magazines. Often, I tweak them to fit my specific needs. I will always give credit to whomever inspired the meal.

Polenta Pizza
This was a clean-out-the-fridge type concoction. I have had this polenta (organic, non-gmo corn, of course) that I picked up from Trader Joe's taking up space in my fridge for quite some time. Yeah, yeah...the polenta isn't homemade. But sometimes, you really need something quick, and this satiated my desire for a time-conserving meal that packed a lot of flavor. I also didn't have to turn the oven on...a big plus on a 90 degree day when I have had all the different variations of salad that my produce will allow.
I cut the polenta into 1/4 inch rounds, sauteed in olive oil for about 4 minutes on each side, then topped with a spoon full leftover marinara I made earlier this week, a little bit of grated almond "mozzarella" cheese, and garnished with a fresh basil leaf from my windowsill plant. Voila. Fast, simple, and delicious!!
