  • While the polenta is cooking, chop your veggies and chicken sausage.
  • Remove the polenta from the microwave. Place a plate over the bowl, to let the polenta set up and get firmer.
  • In a small skillet, add the chicken sausage and vegetables and saute until golden brown.
  • Add the laughing cow cheese wedge to the polenta and stir to melt the cheese.
  • Add salt and pepper and crushed red pepper flakes to the polenta.
  • Place the cooked veggies/chicken sausage on top of the polenta.

Notes

Quick tip- if the polenta is still kind of soupy after putting the plate on top for 5 minutes - microwave for another minute and let it sit for another 5 minutes to firm up.
I like it to be the consisitency of mashed potatoes!
