i am gonna really cut back my meat intake. which leaves me thinking about other interesting things to eat. i found a bag of polenta in my pantry. polenta and grits, i figured are just about the same thing. i whipped up a batch. water, salt, pinch of baking soda..simmered in the polenta..25 minutes later i had about a damn half gallon of the stuff. it was delicious!

but what a pile of leftovers. i took it this morning, sliced up the block of polenta and pan fried it. it was crispy on the outside, and creamy inside. i put a poached egg on top and high fived myself. i bet the leftovers are better than the original.

ok, you southern friends. what else can i do with the stuff?
