Steps:
- Prepare spread: Preheat the oven broiler. Place the bell peppers on a foil-lined half sheet pan and slide under the broiler. Allow the peppers to char on all sides, rotating them with tongs every few minutes. This will take anywhere from 10 to 15 minutes, roughly.
- Transfer the peppers to a bowl and allow to cool until comfortable to handle, then cut in half, discarding the stems, seeds, and peel. Slice the peeled roasted peppers into thick strips and place in a large bowl with the olive oil, garlic confit cloves (or roasted garlic), and thyme sprigs. Allow to marinate for 15 to 20 minutes while you prepare the polenta rounds.
- Prepare polenta: Trim and discard the ends of the polenta tubes. Slice the logs into ½-inch thick rounds (this should yield roughly 10 rounds per tube). Brush (or spray) both sides of the polenta discs with olive oil. Heat a large grill pan or outdoor gas grill over medium-high heat. Grill the polenta discs for 3 to 4 minutes on each side, flipping them carefully to avoid breaking them. Place on a platter, sprinkle lightly with salt, and allow the grilled polenta to cool slightly while you finish preparing the topping.
- Remove the strips of roasted red pepper from the oil, allowing most of the oil to drip off, and place in a small food processor. Pulse the peppers until roughly chopped. Transfer to a medium bowl, add the roughly chopped confit (or roasted) garlic cloves, and stir in the crumbled feta. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Top each piece of grilled polenta with a large spoonful of pepper spread. Garnish with fresh thyme leaves. Serve immediately.

POLENTA AND GRILLED VEGETABLES WITH ROASTED RED PEPPER SAUCE
This dish is perfect in the spring or summer when vegetables are plenty. It reminds me of a rustic dish you could get at a little Italian eatery. Don't be daunted by the long list of ingredients, the meal comes together quickly. I have a gluten allergy and the polenta satisfies any bread cravings I might have. The dish is also a great vegetarian option, but I swear it will make any carnivore happy :) The vegetables can also be done in the broiler.

Steps:
- Bring 3 cups water to a boil in a medium-sized heavy saucepan. Add polenta, whisking quickly to combine. Reduce heat to a medium-low and simmer, stirring frequently, until thick- about 3-5 minutes. Whisk in 1/3 cup Parmesan and season with the cayenne pepper and salt. Coat a 9" pie plate with cooking spray and pour the polenta into the prepared pie plate and smooth out the surface and let sit for 15 minutes.
- Meanwhile, heat grill (or broiler). Whisk together garlic, thyme, lemon juice, and oil in a bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Toss vegetables with the dressing. Coat a grill basket (or cooking tray) with cooking spray and arrange vegetables. Grill vegetables until tender and slightly charred- about 3-5 minutes on each side. Transfer to a platter.
- Combine all sauce ingredients in a blender or food processor and blend until smooth.
- Heat broiler, sprinkle polenta with remaining Parmesan cheese. Broil polenta until golden brown- about 2-3 minutes, then slice into 8 pieces. Divide polenta among 4 plates. Top with vegetable, drizzle with sauce and sprinkle with fresh basil.

Steps:
- For the crackers: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Combine the flour, cornmeal, Parmesan, tarragon, cayenne and 1 teaspoon salt in a food processor and pulse to combine. Add the butter and pulse until incorporated. Add the heavy cream and process until the dough comes together. If the dough is too dry, add a little more cream, 1 teaspoon at a time, until the dough comes together.
- Lightly flour a sheet of parchment paper and place the dough on top. Shape the dough into a rectangle with your hands, then lightly flour the dough and roll it out with a rolling pin until it is a little less than 1/4 inch thick (about a 15-by-12-inch rectangle). Poke all over with a fork. Cut the dough into squares or rectangles and carefully transfer them to the prepared baking sheet. Bake until light golden brown, 10 to 12 minutes. Cool completely on a rack.
- For the mushrooms: Increase the oven temperature to 450 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with foil.
- Toss the mushrooms with the oil, 3/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper on the prepared baking sheet. Roast, stirring once or twice, until tender and well browned, 20 to 25 minutes.
- In a small bowl, combine the lemon juice, tarragon and a pinch of salt and pepper. Transfer the mushrooms to a bowl and top with the tarragon-lemon juice mixture.
- Serve the crackers with the mushrooms on the side for topping.

- In a large saucepan, bring the chicken stock to a boil over medium-high heat. Season with 1 teaspoon salt and 1 teaspoon pepper. Gradually whisk in the polenta to avoid clumping. Keep whisking, slowly and carefully, until the polenta comes to a simmer and begins to thicken. Lower the heat and cook as directed on the package, stirring occasionally with a wooden spoon. Cook until a spoon inserted into the polenta stands straight up, about 10 minutes more. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Generously grease a 9 by 13-inch baking pan with olive oil. Using a rubber spatula, spread the polenta evenly in the baking pan, working it into the corners and smoothing the top. Cover the polenta with plastic wrap and let cool in the refrigerator for 2 hours or until firm. Cut the polenta into 12 triangles with a knife or cookie cutter.
- Preheat the grill on high heat. Once hot, brush the grill with olive oil and add the polenta pieces; don’t move them until grill marks form, about 2 minutes. Flip the polenta, grill on the other side for 2 minutes, transfer to a platter, and serve with the salsa.
- Preheat the broiler. Broil the peppers about 4 inches from the heat, turning to blister all sides, 15 to 20 minutes. Transfer the peppers to a paper bag and close tightly to steam and cool.
