Goat's Cheese Polenta With Mushrooms

Use instant polenta for this (I can hear our Italian members sobbing at the back) The cheese really packs the flavour into it.

Delicious! With a few changes I could see this being one of my favorite recipes. As much as I love wine, the flavor was too strong; I used a sherry so maybe that's why, but next time I'll use a smaller amount, or just water or broth. I followed the package instructions to use 1 1/3 cups polenta for the four cups liquid. I used double the amount of spinach because it really shrinks! A delicious, filling vegetarian meal!Reply
