Creamy Polenta
This is how I make creamy polenta. It is very easy and it is a great substitute for potatoes or pasta. You can put anything you like into it or you can put nothing at all into it. I particularly like this with stews and the like. In this case I made it for the goulash and it was fantastic.
You also add a little Italian cheese to this to finish it off.
