  Used feta instead of goats cheese, very easy to make, great for a quick lunch. Next time I will add some chilli to spice it up a little... lovely with sausages.

  Very and easy to prepare and tastes great!...Did make a few alterations though to make it a full meal: used some homemade passata instead of the tinned tomatos and added some leftover chorizo...Will try it with strips of cooked chicken next time...Perfect with warm crusty bread and side salad!

  I doubled the amount of spinach (could only find frozen, but it still came out lovely) and tomato sauce, but otherwise simply followed the instructions. What I got was a fast & easy dinner that tasted great! The polenta is a welcome variation to the usual pasta/rice/potoatoes, and the goats cheese add interest. Served it with focaccia bread and a crisp green salad, and both my husband and kids cleared their plates, and asked for seconds!

  This recipe is really tasty. I add mushrooms & bake low in the oven for about 30 mins to let the flavours develop.

  I used this as a recipe as a base, and made my own polenta adding sliced black olives and parmesan. I also added the rest of the olives to the tomato base and served it with crusty bread and salad - yummy!

  Very simple and easy to make and we loved it. I used a combination of fresh toms and passata wihich needed using up and slighly more garlic . Nice with sausages but equally lovely on its own with a huge salad. Yum.

  Very nice... Nice flavours, fairly quick and a useful method of wilting spinach. I made my own polenta (the ready-made kind is incredibly weird - too smooth and bland and rubbery) BUT DON'T follow the instruction about "just make up a 500g pack regular polenta following pack instructions". This implies that 500g dry polenta will be needed for this recipe. I scaled down the quantity I made by more than half, but still ended up with a MASSIVE amount of cooked polenta. Dry polenta absorbs so much liquid that you wouldn't need more than, say, 150g to make the equivalent of 500g ready-made. I will now be looking for other polenta recipes...
