Not bad. I made it with chicken sausage so I had to add some olive oil with the mushrooms and tomatoes. We'll make it again.
8/25/2011 07:27:16 PM Report AbuseWe loved this dish with a few simple changes. Instead of cherry tomatoes I used an undrained can of diced tomatoes. We used instant polenta mixed with a little cheddar cheese instead of in a tube and just spooned it into bowls instead of broiling it. I made the sausage sauce and let that simmer while I made the polenta and it was delicious, the mushrooms were so flavorful. This was even better as leftovers for lunch the next day.
