From Jolinda Hackett, your Guide to Vegetarian Food
Polenta, made from cornmeal, is absolutely underrated, in my opinion. I love that the texture is so different from other vegetarian and vegan foods, and I love the versatility of using it as a base to add various veggies and spices. It can be a main or a side, or even a sandwich, and there's ways to eat it for breakfast, lunch or dinner. When homemade, it's also a bargain. And that, of course, is always a plus, in my book!

Basic vegan polenta recipe
Spice it up or eat it plain - this recipe is delicious on it's own for a simple hot breakfast or as a filling dinner side. Here's how to prepare polenta without fuss or hassle.

Polenta dinner casserole
With veggies and sauteed meat substitute, this is one way to take a simple ingredient and turn it into a main dish.

Quick and easy cornmeal cornbread
Got some cornmeal leftover from making polenta? This is the easiest cornbread recipe you will ever find, and, it's vegan!

Grilled polenta
Got leftover polenta? Grill it up - indoors or out - for a simple and tasty vegetarian dinner, topped perhaps with a simple marinara sauce or an earthy sage and butter sauce.
