Turkey Meatball Over Polenta

Turkey and I have recently met and became friends. She is versatile, tasty and easy! So I came up with this healthy alternative to a normal spaghetti and meatball dinner.

Turkey Meatball Over Polenta

Ingredients:

1 Package Turkey Meatballs (because I am lazy)
1 12 oz can tomato puree
1 tbs garlic
2 tbs olive oil
1 tbs fresh basil leaves ripped
salt and pepper
1 package yellow corn meal
1/4 cup Parmesan
1 tbs butter
Milk

Directions:

In a large skillet get the olive oil hot and add garlic, salt and pepper till golden. Add in the tomatoes and meatballs. Put lid on it and cook for 20-30 minutes then add basil. In a separate pot read the back of the corn meal package for the polenta usually 1 cup of polenta with 1 cup of milk. Add milk first and get it hot get a whisk and make sure you do small increments and stir till there r no lumps. Let the polenta cook for 5-10 minutes. Remove from stove add butter and cheese.  To serve get a large bowl dump in the polenta then put the meatballs and sauce right over it, top with more cheese!
