Slow-Cooker Short Ribs With Cheesy Polenta image

Sounds delicious. Posted for safe-keeping. From Ladies Home Journal. Their nutritional info is VERY different from Zaar's for this recipe, I think Zaar is forgetting that there are bones in the ribs, not just 4 pounds of straight meat.

Number Of Ingredients 15

4 medium carrots, cut into 1-inch pieces
2 cups frozen pearl onions (from a 16-ounce bag)
4 garlic cloves, minced
4 lbs beef short ribs with bones
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 (14 1/2 ounce) can diced tomatoes
3/4 cup low sodium beef broth
1/4 cup dry red wine
1/4 cup fresh flat-leaf parsley, coarsely chopped (plus additional for garnish)
2 tablespoons cornstarch
2 tablespoons tomato paste
1 bay leaf
1 cup quick-cooking polenta
1/2 teaspoon salt

I'm not a big fan of polenta, but I loved this dish! The short ribs were so tender and flavorful. I will definitely be making this again, but I'll use mashed potatoes instead of polenta.
