Summer seems to be whizzing by, but for our friends in the S.H., a fresh, new Spring is right around the corner....
We are cooking from the Fall issue...
Of course, the recipes are all cozy and rich...
I decided to go outside of my comfort zone
and try my hand at cooking polenta...
Have you ever cooked it? Do you love it?
I will say, this is a time sensitive dish! If you want to retain the creaminess, you must eat it immediately, for polenta solidifies quickly.
The recipe called for luscious sauteed portobello mushrooms, as well as bagna cauda. I figured that even if I messed up with the polenta, the latter two components would save the day.
:)
Polenta with Bagna Cauda and Mushrooms
It was yummy, creamy, garlicky, and totally satisfying...
And for dessert:
Dark Chocolate Peanut Butter Cups
(seems as if I had a color theme going!)
I went a bit too thick with the chocolate...just need to keep that in mind for next time!
Yum. So easy to make.
Store bought can't compare...
What have you been cooking up lately?
Wishing you all a beautiful week!!!
