PIZZA WITH POLENTA CRUST

PIZZA WITH POLENTA CRUST

I have this recipe from Gourmet Grains, Beans and Rice for Polenta Crust

nonstick cooking spray
1 1/2 cups yellow cornmeal
1 cup boiling water
1/2 teaspoon salt to taste
1 cup cold water
1/2 cup grated fatfree parmesan

Spray a10 inch pie pan with nonstick spray. Preheat oven to 350. Place cornmeal in a small bowl. Add cold water and stir until well mixed. Stir cornmeal mixture into saucepan of boiling water. Cook, stirring over low heat until thickened, 5 to 8 minutes. Remove from heat and stir salt and Parmesan.

Spread cornmeal mixture to form a crust in the greased pan, using wet hands or a spatula. Spread evenly across bottom and up sides. Bake uncovered for 30 miutes.

Make this crust on a rather large square pan and do not shape into a
pie, then cut into squares.Toppings can consist of sauteed green
and yellow peppers , mushrooms,etc.
