I am in a breakfast rut.  Most mornings I have a hard boiled egg, some fruit, and a cup of coffee.  After making polenta for dinner a week or so ago, I decided it would also be delicious for breakfast.  Time to change things up!  I made my breakfast polenta with milk to make it creamy.  The toppings, like oatmeal, make the bowl sing.  I added pure maple syrup and strawberries.  Other toppings or add-ins might include: vanilla, brown sugar, cinnamon, blueberries, blackberries, heavy cream.  The possibilities are endless.

It took less than 10 minutes to make.  While not instant, it is still a quick and easy breakfast!

CREAMY BREAKFAST POLENTA

1/2 cup     Corn Grits or corn meal  { I used Bob’s Red Mill Corn Grits}

1 1/2 cup   Milk

Bring milk to a boil.  Add corn grits and reduce heat.  Cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.  Remove from heat and cover for a couple of minutes.   Add desired toppings and enjoy!  Serves 2.
