Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Butter or oil a 2-quart baking dish. Combine the polenta, salt and water in the baking dish. Place in the oven on a baking sheet. Bake 50 minutes. Stir in the butter, and bake for another 10 to 15 minutes until the polenta is soft and all of the liquid has been absorbed. Stir in the cheese, if using.
- While the polenta is baking, cook the vegetables. Heat the oil in a large, heavy nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring, until it begins to soften, about 3 minutes. Add the carrots, kohlrabi and parsnip, and then season with salt. Cook, stirring often, until tender, about 10 minutes. Add the garlic, and stir together for about a minute until fragrant. Stir in the tomatoes with their liquid, a pinch of sugar and salt to taste. Cook over medium heat, stirring often, for 15 minutes until the tomatoes are cooked down and fragrant. Add lots of freshly ground pepper, taste and adjust salt, and remove from the heat.
- Serve the polenta with the vegetables spooned on top.

ROASTED POLENTA WITH GARDEN VEGETABLES
Steps:
- Make the Polenta: Bring the chicken stock, butter, pepper, and salt to a boil in a heavy-bottomed pot. While whisking the hot stock in a quick circular motion, "rain" in the polenta by letting it stream through your fingers. (This will prevent lumping.)
- Reduce the polenta to a gentle simmer; it must be stirred constantly for 25 to 35 minutes to prevent lumps or scorching. Be very careful when stirring, the mixture is very hot (think lava) and can burn you if it boils and sputters. If it begins to boil cover the pot and reduce the heat until boiling stops!
- The polenta is cooked when it is no longer grainy and has become creamy. (My grandmother says good polenta takes 30 minutes, great polenta takes 1 hour).
- Stir in the Parmesan and basil and pour onto a buttered sheet pan to cool. When cool, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate. Cut the polenta into any shape you desire that's structurally sound. In other words, a shape that won't fall apart on the grill easily, or be difficult to remove from the sheet pan after roasting. Squares, triangles, stars etc.
- Make the Marinade and Vegetables: Whisk together the vinegar and garlic. While whisking, drizzle in the oil to make a smooth dressing. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Toss the vegetables with the marinade.
- When ready to serve, preheat an outdoor grill or indoor grill pan.
- Brush the polenta lightly on both sides with olive oil and grill, turning once, until the edges are brown and crispy.
- At the same time grill the vegetables until they are tender but still firm.
- Pile the vegetables on top of the polenta, then stand back and wait for the applause!
ROASTED VEGETABLE AND POLENTA SALAD
Prepared polenta is an incredibly versatile and shelf-stable ingredient that is surprisingly low in calories and often gluten-free (make sure you check the label!). Rather than slice it, in this recipe I cut in into chunks like a traditional crouton and crisped it up in some sage-infused olive oil to add an interesting and hearty twist to a big salad.

Steps:
- Place a rimmed baking sheet in the middle of the oven and preheat to 450˚ F. Combine the sweet potatoes, broccoli, red onion and tomatoes in a bowl. Add 2 tablespoons olive oil, 3/4 teaspoon salt and a generous amount of pepper; toss well. Spread out on the hot pan and roast, stirring once or twice, until the vegetables are browned, 25 to 30 minutes. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon vinegar, scraping up any stuck bits from the bottom of the pan.
- Meanwhile, cut the polenta into 1 1/2-inch pieces (about 24). Heat 2 more tablespoons olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sage leaves and cook until crisp, 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel to drain. Add the polenta pieces to the remaining oil in the skillet; season with salt and pepper. Cook, turning occasionally, until the polenta pieces release easily from the pan and are golden and crisp, 15 to 20 minutes.
- Toss the salad greens with the remaining 1 tablespoon each olive oil and vinegar and a pinch each of salt and pepper. Divide among shallow bowls. Top evenly with the warm roasted vegetables and polenta along with any extra olive oil from the skillet. Break the goat cheese into bits and sprinkle over the salad. Tear the fried sage and sprinkle on top.

BAKED POLENTA AND ROASTED VEGETABLES
I love recipes to get ideas on how flavors go together. Much to my family's dismay, I hardly ever follow them. I saw something like this in our local paper but didn't want mushy polenta. I always have a fridge full of leftovers and this was created with what I had on hand. It has a few short cuts- like buying pre-made polenta but you can make your own. Experiment with other veggies, cheeses, spices... Enjoy! I salted the eggplant then reconstituted the polenta and put it in the oven before prepping the rest of the veggies. This give the eggplant time to weep and to bake the polenta. And to have a glass of wine.

- VEGGIES:.
- Salt the eggplant on both sides and let sit for 20 minutes on paper towels, then wipe the salt off and cube the eggplant.
- Put the zucchini, mushrooms, onion and eggplant in a large bowl and mix with salt, pepper, oregano and olive oil.
- Place on a baking sheet and bake for 30 minutes or until the veggies are al dente.
- FINISHING.
- Drizzle the spaghetti sauce on top of the polenta.
- Spread the roasted veggies on top of the drizzled polenta.

Stir occasionally so it doesn’t stick to the bottom of the pan. When it's done remove from the heat and stir in the cheese, butter and additional salt to taste if needed.
- Serve the warm polenta in bowls with the roasted vegetables and their juices over the top, sprinkle with additional cheese if you like.
