Polenta Pizza image

When we had our restaurant, one of our specials on Thursday night was polenta and chicken. We always had polenta left over and Dad would complain about the waste. I came up with this idea and boy did it take off! Johnny would grill a slice of polenta on the grill and then add sausage, mushrooms, peppers, and onions and then top it with a little sauce and mozzarella.

I tried this recipe and it was a disaster! The polenta crust was a gooey mess, and the toppings just slid off. I wouldn't recommend this recipe to anyone.
