POLENTA AND GREENS
This is actually one of my mom's Italian recipes. It's simple, vegetarian, relatively low fat, and delicious. Great for spring.

Steps:
- Wash and dry your greens and slice them into very thin ribbons. You don't really need to slice broccoli di rape if you are using that.
- Bring water to a boil with some salt.
- Add cornmeal slowly and mix rapidly for about 4 minutes. Turn heat to low and let simmer for about 10 minutes, stirring to avoid burning. Take off the heat.
- In a skillet heat the olive oil on meidum heat. and add the garlic (the more the better). Saute for about two minutes.
- Add the greens, salt, and hot pepper. Saute until the greens are wilted but still have good color.
- Serve the greens on top of the polenta.
- A tomato salad is good with this.
