Broiled Polenta


Not to dis my mom's cooking, because she's a wonderful cook, but sometimes she falls into trends with her dinner planning, and will make the same dish over and over and over, without enough wait time in between.

One night when I was home, it was just my dad, brother, and me home for dinner, and my mom had left ingredients to make one of the delish but very routine dishes. But my brother and I were not feeling it that night, and so my brother asked if I could just create something different. We were both really hungry, so under the pressure of our growling stomachs, this is what I came up with.

The bottom is a bed of sautéed greens and onions. Then, I added polenta, which I just chopped, lightly coated in olive oil, and broiled until crispy. Then I topped it off with sliced fresh cherry tomatoes.

My brother approved.
