Vegan Polenta Recipe

Recipe By The Spruce Eats

Vegan polenta is quick and easy to make with this recipe. You can enjoy it as a hot, creamy dish in under 30 minutes, or chill it to make a polenta loaf to use as the base of other recipes. Creamy quick homemade vegan polenta is great for breakfast. Add as much vegan margarine as you'd like if you're not worried about your vegan polenta being low-fat. You can also use this polenta as a side dish to accompany other dishes for lunch or dinner. You can make the polenta with water or add flavor by cooking the cornmeal in vegetable broth. Use your homemade broth or packaged broth. Polenta comes from italian cuisine and is made with coarsely ground yellow corn, giving it texture. In contrast, grits are seen in southern cuisine and are made with finely-ground white corn (hominy).
