I just made…. a mess.

But a tasty mess!  This was a try at Polenta Pie, which is really Polenta Slop.

Layers from the bottom up:

• Polenta
• Zucchini
• Spaghetti Squash
• Tomatoes
• Parmesan Cheese

I now have approximately 35 million pounds of leftover polenta and 3/4 of a “polenta pie.”   Today was a productive day.
