Recipe: Polenta Pizza


Polenta Pizza

Pizza won the vote in this week’s NutriPic on our Facebook page, so I’ve made this deliciously healthy polenta pizza – and it tastes just as good as it looks. You can use any toppings you like I’ve gone for asparagus and nutritional yeast. It makes a great healthy meal for the kids and it’s far more nutritious than a regular pizza.
