THREE CHEESE BAKED POLENTA
Ingredients
2 ½ cups water
2 ½ cups milk
1 tsp salt
½ tsp Black pepper
½ tsp cinnamon
2 cups cornmeal
½ cup grated Parmesan Cheese
1 cup grated Cheddar Cheese
¼ cup grated Gouda Cheese
4 tbsp butter
Fresh thyme leaves
Fresh spinach or greens for serving
Directions
- Mix water and milk in a large pot and bring to boil. Add salt, pepper and cinnamon, then pour in cornmeal and stir constantly. Reduce heat and continue to stir constantly for about 10-12 minutes until cornmeal mixture reaches desired consistency.
- Remove from heat; add Parmesan, Gouda and half of the Cheddar to the cornmeal mixture, stir in until cheese is melted.
- Pour the polenta into a flat baking dish and spread to desired thickness (between 1 to 2 inches). Allow to cool.
- Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees F.
- Grease or spray a baking dish. Using a cookie cutter of choice cut out circles and arrange in greased baking dish. Sprinkle remaining cheddar cheese and thyme leaves over Polenta.
- Bake for 20 minutes or until they get golden and crisp. Serve on a bed of greens.
