One of my most favorite and super easy side dishes to make is Parmesan Baked Polenta.  I don't even know how I discovered that you can buy Polenta in tube form...but it makes me happy! 

I love to get mine from Trader Joe's but you can also find it in the pasta isle in most other grocery stores! 

What You Need:
Polenta Tube
2 tsp Olive Oil or Misto Spray
Paprika or other seasoning of choice (to your liking) 
2 tbsp Fresh Grated Parmesan

Preheat your oven to 400℉. I use my Breville Mini Smart Oven (I love it and no, they don't pay me a thing to say that).  Line a cookie sheet with foil and spray with a nonstick spray (I use my Olive Oil spray). 

Slice 6 (about 1/4 inch) pieces of polenta and place on the greased foil lined pan.  I used about 2 tsp total of Olive Oil and spread it out over the top of each piece of polenta. A little goes a long way!  Bake them for 15 minutes.  

After 15 minutes, take them out, sprinkle lightly with paprika (or your seasoning of choice) and the parmesan.  Bake for another 5 minutes or until your cheese is golden and bubbly!

Serve immediately.
