Ingredients

Servings
  • 3 cups reduced sodium vegetable or chicken broth
  • 1 bag (12 oz) frozen riced cauliflower (I used a cauliflower and sweet potato blend)
  • ½ cup polenta or cornmeal
  • 3 tablespoons mascarpone cheese
  • ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • salt and pepper
  • Optional toppings: marinara sauce, grated Parmesan cheese, mascarpone cheese

Instructions

  1. Pour the broth and the vegetables into a large saucepan and bring to a boil. Once boiling, pour the polenta in slowly, whisking continuously to prevent lumps. Lower the heat to a low simmer and simmer for 15-20 minutes until cooked.
  2. Stir in the mascarpone and Parmesan cheeses. Season the dish with salt and pepper to taste.
  3. Serve polenta with toppings of your choice.
