CHILI POLENTA LASAGNE

Precooked polenta is a big time saver in the kitchen. I've enjoyed it baked and pan fried which I enjoyed best, but I wanted to try and do something different with it. This recipe was literally inspired by having leftover chili in the fridge and wondering how I wanted to enjoy it. I layered the sliced polenta with chili and shredded cheddar and baked it until bubbly and delicious. The polenta became nice and creamy and paired beautifully with the spices from the chili. Polenta is pretty neutral so you can really infuse it with so many different flavours and have it tasting wonderful.
This recipe is so simple and delicious. I can't wait to share it with you guys!

RIGATONI with ROASTED VEGETABLE TOMATO SAUCE

Rigatoni is the perfect pasta for a blended sauce in my opinion. It's super dense and hearty which I love but it also has plenty of ridges for sauce to find its way into. I roasted some onion, carrot, celery, and bell pepper and blended it into a basic tomato sauce which infused some serious flavour into it. The resulting sauce had depth and layers of flavour that were delicious. Look for this recipe next week!
