Description

Luscious basil-scented veggies top a layer of creamy goat cheese over melt-in-your mouth polenta cakes.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup Chopped White Or Portabella Mushrooms
  • 1 clove Garlic, Minced
  • 1 cup Red Bell Pepper, chopped
  • 2 dashes Olive Oil
  • 1 container (17 Oz. Size) Pre-cooked Basil And Garlic Polenta, In Tube Form
  • 6 ounces, weight Goat Cheese
  • ¾ cups Kalamata Olives, Pitted, Chopped
  • 1 cup Chopped Tomatoes
  • 6 leaves Fresh Basil

Preparation

Begin chopping, mincing and dicing all the veggies, small enough so that each polenta cake has a little bit of every flavor.

Saute mushrooms, garlic, and peppers in a little olive oil for about 5 minutes until tender.

Meanwhile, cut polenta into about 1/2 inch slices. Be careful when handling, they are a bit delicate. Lay these out on a greased sheet pan and spread goat cheese onto each cake. The more the better!

Combine sauteed mushrooms and peppers in a bowl with the chopped olives, tomatoes, basil, a bit more olive oil, and salt and pepper.

Top each polenta cake with your delicious Mediterranean mix. Bake in the oven for 20 minutes on 350ºF, then broil for a couple of minutes at the end to get some golden color.

Serve hot and enjoy!
