polenta pie

Baked polenta pie topped with sliced tomato, mushrooms, and garlic, and assorted herbs. My first time making polenta from scratch - piece of cake! (or pie in this case)

Fried polenta rounds topped with fava beans (lightly sauted in olive oil, garlic, thyme, salt, pepper, and lemon juice), with garlic roasted asparagus on the side. Yay spring!
