Baked Polenta With Garlic image

A delicious change from rice, pasta or potatoes. Goes well with Italian meat and sauce dishes, especially Recipe #50879 that I've posted. I've doubled and tripled this recipe with success. Fresh rosemary is far superior to dried in this. From a 1998 Bon Appetit. Try it, you'll like it!
