Soft Polenta with Poached Eggs and Mushrooms
When you need some comfort food for breakfast lunch or dinner, this is the go to. DELISH! It can be whipped up pretty quickly with ingredients you are quite likely to have on hand. You can of course, change it up, add kimchi, other veggies of choice, a dollop of yoghurt, chorizo sausage, so many options, so little time. Call it a standby solid go to recipe and then let me know how many different things you added to it.
(I mean, is polenta ever going to be wrong? No matter what the time of day!)
