Creamy Polenta With Gorgonzola Cheese
"This is an amazing alternative to mashed potatoes! It's creamy, rich and all around great comfort food! Don't be hesitant about the blue cheese the flavour is subtle in the prepared dish. If you can't get gorgonzola try Stilton, or Roquefort or any good quality blue cheese. I love this dish anytime-warm, cold, at dinner or as a midnight snack-yum!"

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
I was raised with good food and I am genuinely lucky to come from a family of foodies. I enjoy frequenting restaurants and I love cooking for my friends and family as well as learning new tips and tricks. As a student I am on a bit of a budget at times but that is a fun challenge.
My boyfriend loves chocolate chip cookies and is a great person to try new dishes on-if only he would eat more veggies! My roommate appreciates living with a cook and is a great critic.
I work at a Starbucks and it is a great place, I love the environment and meeting new people!
Right now I am loving the new Jamie Oliver cookbook!
