I am not a breakfast person. The meals I do are lunch and dinner. I usually stash a yogurt into my bag and snack on that come 9:45.
After a very hectic Halloween Day yesterday, I found myself needing breakfast this morning. I was craving something warm and delicious so I made a pot of polenta. I don't like grits but there IS something I can't resist about the yellow cornmeal.
Ingredients:
2 cups of water or stock
1 1/2 cups cornmeal
1/4 cup half and half
salt
1/2 stick of butter
Preparation:
Warm the stock and stir in the cornmeal. Add butter, salt to taste and stir constantly until a thick creamy consistency results. In the homestretch add the half and half and stir vigorously. Spoon into a bowl, add a pat of butter and tuck in.
