Serve the polenta immediately if you like it smooth and creamy or top it with sauteed mushrooms. To eat it fried, spread it into a baking dish, let it firm up, then cut it into squares to pan-fry.

This polenta recipe is a great way to use up leftover cheese. I always have a block of cheddar cheese in my fridge, and this is the perfect way to use it up. The polenta is creamy and cheesy, and it's a great side dish for any meal.

This polenta recipe was a disaster! The polenta was lumpy and the cheese sauce was too thick. I ended up throwing the whole thing away.
