Vegan Creamy Polenta

Ingredients:
Tube of Polenta, sliced 1/2 inch thin
Block of Frozen Spinach, boiled and drained well
8 oz Mushrooms, chopped or sliced
1/2 White onion, sliced thin ( I precooked in a small skillet with water, I hate undercooked onions)

In a food processor, puree
1 block of drained Silken Soft Tofu
5 cloves Garlic, pressed
lots of fresh or dried basil, oregano, rosemary
salt and pepper to taste
squirt of lemon juice
1/4 -1/2 cup unsweetened soy or almond milk
Puree till smooth, you want it to be the thickness of Alfredo Sauce

Preheat oven to 400 F

In a rectangle baking dish:
Spread veggies and half of the sauce in baking dish, mix well and flatten evenly in pan
Top with polenta, then add the rest of the sauce.
bake 45 min, till bubbly.
Viola, yummy and we topped with some veggie italian sausage, sliced(not vegan, but close enough)
