Cheezy polenta
-
1 cup unsweetened almond milk or any other non-dairy milk of your choice
-
1 vegetable stock cube dissolved in 1.5 cups of hot water
-
1/2 cup quick cook polenta
-
1/4 tsp garlic powder
-
Salt & pepper to taste
-
4 tsp nutritional yeast flakes (more if needed)
-
Water as needed
- Optional garnish: THIS Isn't Bacon Plant-Based Lardons
-
To cook polenta, combine milk and vegetable stock in a saucepan and bring to a gentle boil.
-
Add polenta and whisk for a few seconds to ensure there are no clumps.
-
Stir in garlic powder, season with salt & pepper, cover with a lid and turn the heat down to medium low.
-
Simmer polenta for 8-10 minutes, stirring continuously, until it’s just starting to thicken.
-
Stir in nutritional yeast flakes within the last 2 minutes of cooking. Turn the heat off and let polenta ‘sit’ on the hob for a few minutes to absorb all the liquid.*If you prefer your polenta a little thinner, add water, a little at a time, to achieve the desired consistency.
-
Whilst polenta is cooking, heat up your Pumpkin Spice Stew OnePot either on the hob, or in the microwave.
- If you've opted for some THIS Isn't Bacon Lardons, get frying them in a little oil to get them crispy.
- Dish up your cheezy polenta, pour over your Pumpkin Spice OnePot, sprinkle over your lardons and enjoy!
