Notes

  • Use full fat yogurt if you prefer! This creamy polenta will get plenty of flavor without the fat, but use what you have.Switch up the herbs! Thyme, rosemary, sage and basil are all good in this recipe.If you don't have parmesan - no problem! Any cheese will do, but because parmesan is salty, you may need to add extra seasoning.You may wish to use chicken stock instead of water for a savory bump in flavor.
