Mini Polenta Pizzas

Mini Polenta Pizzas

I can't remember where I'd heard you could make mini pizzas with slices of polenta, but here's what I came up with for the kids!

Tools:
1) Baking sheet

Ingredients:
1) Nonstick spray (I used Olive Oil)
2) 1 Polenta log (any flavor will do)
3) 1 small can of Tomato Sauce
3) Shredded Mozzarella Cheese
4) Parmesan Cheese (I used a garlic herb one from Walmart)
5) Seasonings...Garlic Powder and Italian Seasoning

Directions:
1) Preheat the oven to 350F.
2) Spray the baking sheet with oil.
3) Slice the Polenta log into 10-12 rounds and place on the baking sheet.
4) Brush some Tomato Sauce on the rounds, sprinkle with Garlic Powder and Italian seasoning, top with Mozzarella Cheese, then dust with Parmesan Cheese.
5) Bake in the oven until the cheese is melted and starts to turn golden.
6) Let sit for a few minutes, then serve and enjoy! :)

Thoughts... These were awesome! So easy, fast and delicious with very little mess! The kids loved them and asked for more than the three I originally placed on each of their plates!

Comments... I think these would make a great appetizer and for a twist would be even better with a slice of pepperoni under the cheese!
