This is for a creamy polenta. I like mine loose and not thick. If you like it thicker just add less liquid. I was going to add cheese at the end, but it was so good without it. So I left it out. You could add butter and cheese at the end. I think the half and half made it taste creamy like cheese. I did't have milk to use, so I Just used the heavy cream. Next time I might try with coconut milk to make it less dairy.
3 Cups water
1 Cup Half and Half (1 c coconut milk from a can or just all water for less creamy)
1 tsp salt
1/2 tst garlic powder
1 cup Bob's Polenta (find organic if you can)
Add everything to a 3 Qt crockpot
turn on high for 2 hours or
turn it on low for 5 hours
stir every once in awhile because it settles to the bottom
any left overs, put in a container and refrigerate.
when set, cut in slices and pan fry with oil to make fried polenta and dip in marinara sauce.
