Quickie Polenta
Written by Rocky Mountain Woman on April 20, 2012 – 6:07 am -Easy Peasy….
Start where all things wonderful start, with a pat (extra large) of butter melting in a skillet
Cut fresh corn off two cobs and add to the melted butter, or just add 1/2 bag of frozen corn
let it sizzle for a minute and then add 1 1/2 cups of water (more or less depending on how many people you are feeding)
then slowly add instant polenta a little at a time, waiting a minute to see how much it thickens, until it seems thick enough, let is simmer for a minute or so…
salt and pepper!
yum!!!
Could that be any easier? Seriously good and seriously easy….

Were you thinking of.me when you posted this easy polenta? I made it once and it got so gummy we couldn’t eat it. Will try yours. Just wanted to mention that Blogsy seems to do a good job for iPad but I definitely suggest watching all the “how to” videos first. It’s not intuitive and frustrated me at first. I’ve now done a post on each of my blogs and all seems OK. I’m coming into UT with a friend to go to Zion first weekend in May. Needed something to publish blog while traveling. The Blogger app is no good with pics.

Woah! What a deliciously easy dish. I love the corn cooked in butter at the beginning. That sounds decadent and tasty.

Darn, I just made some brown rice pasta but this would have been great with the sausage spaghetti sauce I have simmering. Yum.
