You can feel good about serving this appetizer. Because now, just two slices of Wonder Classic White Sandwich Bread have as much calcium as an eight ounce glass of milk. And that means, these garlic sticks are not only good, they're good for you, too.

Fancy, fancy polenta. First the corn and parmesan polenta is whipped up. Then the polenta is cut into triangles, fried, topped with thick slices of tomato and a sprinkling of chevre and broiled. This glorious triangle is served on a bed of kale.

This is a forgiving recipe, and a great way to get your greens! Kale is cooked with onions and garlic, a small amount of pancetta or bacon, and cannellini beans to make a great main dish for two or side dish for 4 or more.
