written by CrockPot Cooking | November 23, 2023

Ingredients

7 cups hot water
2 cups polenta (not “quick-cooking”) or coarse-ground yellow cornmeal
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 teaspoons salt
12 ounces Cheddar, Sharp Cheddar or Sharp Cheddar, grated (about 3 cups)

Directions

COMBINE water, polenta, olive oil and salt in slow cooker; whisk until well blended. Add cheese and whisk again.

COVER and cook on high setting for 2 hours, or until liquid is mostly absorbed. Stir together well (polenta should have consistency of thick cooked cereal).
