Spinach Polenta<\/span><\/p>\n

2 cups water<\/p>\n

2 cups milk<\/p>\n

1 tsp salt<\/p>\n

1 cup polenta cornmeal<\/p>\n

1 cup grated parmesan<\/p>\n

8 oz fresh baby spinach<\/p>\n

Fresh Tomato Topping<\/span><\/p>\n

4 large tomatoes or 8-10 plum tomatoes<\/p>\n

2 garlic cloves, minced or pressed<\/p>\n

2 T olive oil<\/p>\n

1\/2 tsp salt<\/p>\n

1 tsp dried oregano<\/p>\n

2 T balsamic vinegar<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

To make the polenta: In a saucepan, bring the water, milk, and salt to a boil. Add the cornmeal in a slow, steady stream while whisking. Simmer for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the polenta is thick.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, prepare the topping: Cut the tomatoes into wedges. In a saucepan on med-low heat, cook the garlic in the oil for a minute. Add the tomatoes, salt, oregano, and vinegar and simmer for about 5 minutes, just until hot.<\/p>\n

When the polenta is thick, reduce the heat to low and stir in the cheese until melted and smooth. Fold in the spinach, a couple of handfuls at a time, until just wilted.<\/p>\n

Serve the polenta hot, topped with the tomatoes and more cheese if you wish.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
