I made my own roasted garlic polenta and used asparagus, eggplant and red peppers. I added 3 cloves of garlic. Really wish I had the onion. I used goat cheese but feta would be just as good. The vegetable possibities for this are endless.

This was pretty good! I used the polenta recipe from "Easy Polenta with Tomato Sauce" (but omitted the parmesan cheese). I didn't have any zucchini and I added mushrooms to this. I also didn't have much feta cheese so I mixed the feta with some mozza...turned out quite tasty!

The veggies for this dish were really outstanding...I've made them twice already. The polenta was a bit plain and needed a little more pizazz to make the dish outstanding. Thanks, though, this was a really fun and interesting dinner and I'll certainly be trying it again with some changes based on our own tastes.

We liked this, and it was definately a change from the usual. I used the basic cheese polenta recipe from this site, instead of buying premade polenta. The polenta was only okay, but that may be due to a problem with the other recipe that I had. The vegetables were fantastic! I subbed baby portabella mushrooms for the peppers; used a lot of zucchini; and took the advice of another reviewer and added a couple garlic cloves. I kept the cloves whole, and then pressed them at the end of roasting and stirred them back in. I would make this again, after playing with the polenta a little bit. It's nice to have another meatless option that my husband and I both like.

I gave this recipe 5 stars simply because of how versatile it is!!! I used ingredients that I had on hand (asparagus; red, white, and blue tiny potatoes; chicken sausages; romano cheese)and it was, without a doubt, the most delicious meal I have ever prepared. I can't wait to try it with a variety of other veggies and cheeses. Truly yummy!

This recipe is amazing. It looks and tastes fabulous. I served it with Christmas dinner this year, and everyone raved about it. I use a little more vegetables than it calls for. I also use herb flavored feta cheese.

This was great! I did make some changes, though. I used almost 7 cups of zuchinni and about 1 cup of jarred red peppers. Additionally, I roasted 4 cloves of garlic with the veggies for about 10 minutes and then took them out and put them through a garlic press and added it in with the basil/balsamic mixture. I also used 1/4 tsp. of pepper in the mixture. I also used sun-dried tomatoes to add a little something extra. Also, for fun, I grilled the polenta circles (which I only used 1 18 oz. tube)on a stovetop grill. The grill marks always add to the presentation and just sprinkled s & p to taste. Great vegetarian meal! Thanks!

I didn't have all the stated ingredients: sustituted mushrooms for the onion and dried basil for fresh; parmesan cheese was all I had on hand, but it all pulled together and was quite good. I will make this again.
