Polenta with Sautéed Cherry Tomatoes

Last night I felt like having some polenta. I never really cooked polenta before except to microwave it and throw some spaghetti sauce on it. *ick* ... I know ...

I really need to get better at taking pictures of the yummy things I make. We ate it before any pictures were snapped, but it was so simple to make and delicious that I had to share. Maybe I'll make it again tonight and take a picture this time. *laugh*

It looked very much like this though...


Ingredients for Polenta with Sautéed Cherry Tomatoes:
