In between all the holiday craziness, I still enjoy cooking, though I try to pick meals that don’t take very much work to prepare. Nobody wants more dishes to wash than necessary, ya know? This is a great and hearty dish that is bursting with flavor and won’t cause you to be in the kitchen all night. Bonus: it still reads “fancy” enough to impress!
Sweet Sausage & Feta Polenta
You will need:
- Sausage (I prefer sweet; the fresher the better, from local butcher or farmer’s market)
- Polenta, prepared per box instructions
- Sweet Onion
- Arugula
- Feta
- Basil
- No-Cook Tomato Sauce (see recipe here)
I don’t have exact measurements for any of this. It was literally all “to taste” or “preference.” So go for it, have fun, and see what you come up with!
Sauté sausage with sweet onion, then serve atop a polenta and wilted arugula blend. Top with freshly made No-Cook Tomato Sauce, crumbled Feta, and basil.

I’m continually amazed with how easily tomatoes can be transformed into delicious.

Agreed! And being able to “whip up” a quick sauce can add such great depth of flavor to a dish.
