When we’re tired of basic pasta dinners and want to make an extra special Italian meal, we whip up a pot of this incredibly flavorful polenta. It’s actually no more difficult than making a pot of oatmeal — you’ll never buy the premade stuff again once you try it! Coarse corn meal is simmered with chopped fresh rosemary, then finished with fresh corn kernels, cracked pepper, and Garlic Gold Oil. It’s so creamy and comforting, you’ll never miss the butter and cheese in most recipes! Serve topped with your favorite marinara sauce and a shake or two of our Garlic Gold Parmesan Nuggets.
