Lemon-Parmesan Polenta with Stir-Fried Veggies

An easy, delicious meal. You will need:

Olive oil

A red onion

Two small zucchini (you can use bell peppers or any other vegetable)

Herbal salt

A small mug full of dry Polenta

A water cooker filled with boiling water

A heaping tablespoon of veggie broth

A lemon or two

A few ounces of Parmesan (to taste)

Pepper (to taste)


Put about two tablespoons of olive oil in a teflon frying pan on moderate heat. Slice into smallish pieces the red onion and put it in the pan; add the sliced zucchini. Stir and add herbal salt.  Cover with a spatter guard.

In a pot put about a mugful of dry Polenta (more for three big eaters). Squeeze one or two onions and add the juice. Put a tablespoon of veggie broth in the mug and add a cup of boiling water; stir into the Polenta-lemon mix. Add four more mugs of water, stirring often. Turn heat down while you grate the Parmesan. When the Polenta's thickening, put a ladle-full onto your plate, add a scoop of the veggie-onion mix, a handful of grated Parmesan and a turn or two from the pepper grinder:

  1. I love your blog. I haven’t read it in a while, so it makes me so happy to see you still posting recipes and commentary. I was worried about your health, so your recipes are such an affirmative statement of life that I am just delighted. Red cabbage. Frederick Douglass. Black bean sauce. Zara Neal Hurston. Celery root. Yay!
