1 tsp salt
3 ½ – 4 cups boiling water
1 packed cup grated gruyere cheese
*combine cornmeal, cold water and salt.  Mash into
paste. 
*add to rapidly boiling water, lower heat and beat
with wire wisk as it cooks.
*cook 10-12 minutes (it will have the consistency of
thick oatmeal)
*mix in the cheese.

Goat Cheese Salad

olive oil
chopped spicy salad mix
goat cheese (log-style)
walnuts, chopped finely
1 egg, beaten
*heat oven to 375
*slice goat cheese in ½-1 inch circles
*coat cheese in egg, then dip in walnuts, making sure
walnuts cover cheese completely
*put cheese circles into oven, cook 7-15 minutes until
top is brown and bubbly
*while cheese cooks, assemble salads into individual
bowls, mix with olive oil and balsamic vinegar
*slide warm cheese into center of salad, one cheese
circle per salad

This is truly an extraordinary dish.  The goat cheese
complements the spicy salad wonderfully.  Mmmm –
enjoy!

Veggie Medley

ingredients:

olive oil
1 medium onion, diced
3 cloves garlic, crushed
2 red peppers, chopped
2 zucchini, sliced
mushrooms (as many as you like), chopped
1 cup spinach
½ cup chopped fresh basil
1 ½ cups chopped tomato
salt and pepper to taste
Parmesan cheese

heat olive oil on medium flame in large frying pan or
wok
add onion and garlic, saute until translucent
add peppers and mushrooms and keep stirring
add zucchini
when your vegetables are nearly finished, add spinach,
basil and tomatoes
cook additional few minutes, making sure to thoroughly
mix everything
add salt and pepper to taste

Serve over hot polenta with gruyere cheese or pasta,
then top with Parmesan.

Great additions include veggie sausage or chopped
manzanilla olives.  This is a great way to introduce
the kiddos to a variety of tastes and make sure you
keep yourself healthy!

Magnificent Mushrooms

ingredients:

olive oil or butter (or a bit of both)
6 cloves garlic
2 cups fresh mushrooms (crimini, button, or another)
1 cup dried mushrooms (preferably mixed)
salt and pepper to taste
cooking sherry, OR red wine, OR red wine vinegar
Parmesan cheese

*pour boiling water over dried mushrooms.  Allow to
rehydrate for 20-30 minutes.  Remove from water,
squeeze excess liquid out.
*heat olive oil or butter in large frying pan.
*add mushrooms (all), salt and freshly grated black
pepper.  Saute five minutes on medium-high heat.
*add crushed garlic, cook an additional 2 minutes
*add cooking sherry (or red wine or vinegar), cook
another minute or two

(Cooking the mushrooms before adding the garlic allows
them to absorb more flavor.  Adding the salt earlier
helps them sweat out their own mushroom juices and
leaves more room for other flavors to mix well.)

Serve over hot polenta with gruyere, top with
Parmesan.

This is just fantastic, a very rich dish – serving
with a side of salad is a good idea.
