Grilled seasoned shrimp with onions and peppers

Lime pepper grilled salmon

Grilled polenta

Grilled it all last evening (in the friggin rain)... put it all on at different times and amazingly it was all done at the same time.

my wife and I are just now trying our hand at polenta... so far.. I am not too crazy bout it.

so, if anyone has ideas as to how to jazz it up.......

Gary,
are you buying it in a roll (like sausage) or are your making it yourself?

Friend polenta is really good with a marinara sauce and mozz cheese on top. Sauteed mushrooms reduced in white wine, garlic is really good too.

It was a box mix that the wife bought.. maybe that was the problem.. never made it from scratch...
 
I love polenta make it from scratch too. It is very very easy.

Usually I just make it grill it and top it like steer crazy wrote with marinara and cheese.

However you can also layer on prosciutto spinach and cheese that is a good combo too.

Some specialty stores will have it already made and will look like sausage rolls. Just slice and fry, grill, bake, etc....homemade is better though
