  1. Excellent side dish for Recipe #89550. Made half a recipe and still have a little leftover. Loved the subtle flavor of the blue cheese and so creamy.
     
  2. Great polenta!- soft, creamy and cheesey. THis is way better than mashed potatoes any day. As a bonus it's already gluten-free so I didn't need to change a thing. Thanks for a great easy recipe. All 4 happy tummies in my home are happy :) :) :) :)
     
  3. We loved this twist on regular polenta. I made it exactly as written and wouldn't change a thing. This is very creamy and the blue cheese is outstanding. Thanks so much for sharing, Me & Alex.
     
  4. This was really mild and creamy. I doubled the amount of blue cheese for a richer flavour, and I quartered the recipe with no problems. Thanks for a new spin on polenta!
