The name, vodka, comes from the Russian phrase zhiznennaia voda, or "water of life". It can be made from everything from potatoes to beets. It's considered to be fairly flavorless which makes it a great liquor for mixed drinks.


1 can (14 ounce size) chicken broth
1 cup water
1 cup yellow cornmeal
3 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
salt
black pepper
1 1/2 cup marinara sauce
1/2 cup Mozzarella cheese
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Grease 9-inch square baking dish; set aside.
Combine broth and 1 cup water in medium saucepan. Whisk cornmeal into liquid. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring to prevent lumps.
Reduce heat to medium-low; cook about 7 minutes or until mixture is very thick, stirring constantly. Stir in Parmesan cheese; season with salt and pepper to taste.
Pour hot polenta into prepared dish, spreading evenly with spatula Pour marinara sauce over polenta; sprinkle with mozzarella cheese. Bake 10 minutes or until cheese is melted and sauce is heated through.

It may look like a sad little package shoved in the back of your freezer, but frozen spinach actually has a lot of culinary uses (and some may surprise you).
Beer makes batters better, meat more tender, and sauces more flavorful.

Easy to make. Not that great tasting. It was a first attempt at anything with polenta.
