  • 1 tsp oregano

Instructions
 

  • Start with getting the water and milk to a boil. Add all the seasoning; salt, pepper, oregano, paprika, nutmeg, garlic powder, and nutritional yeast.
  • Once it's boiling, add the polenta, turn the heat down, and keep stirring until it's thickened up. Only do this for about 3 minutes.

  • Once the hour is over, pre-heat your oven to 220 °C (428 °F). Brush the polenta with olive oil and cut into the desired shapes. Dust with polenta and pop in the oven for 30 minutes.
  • Enjoy!!

Crispy Polenta Sandwich

  • Take two slices of bread, spread on aioli on one side, add spinach, add the polenta, sun dried tomato, pickled red onion, a bit of coconut sriracha, salt, pepper, and some fresh mint.

Notes

Polenta is gluten free. If you use gluten free bread, this is entirely GF.
Keeps in the fridge for a few days but best eaten straight away.
