Caprese Polenta Pizza

Life has been a bit crazy lately, January means that there's lots of hockey going on and I'm running around at games, practice, lifts, meetings, etc. It has made it really hard to dial in my nutrition and get to work in the kitchen. Luckily, I have my Shakeology around and I have been eating everything out of my pantry and fridge. Good thing I keep them both stocked with healthy foods!

Who doesn't love pizza? Seriously. I am in LOVE with pizza. Sometimes, I dream about it. I wish I was kidding. So today, when I had a hankering for a slice of deliciousness, I decided to make something at home, instead of ordering in!

Here's a sneak peak of the end product to wet your appetite. 

Have you guys ever cooked with polenta? It can come in a couple ways. Cooked and uncooked.
Cooked it looks like a log... I've seen it at Trader Joe's this way and made it baked and topped with olive oil garlic and some parmesan cheese. Yummmmmy.

Tonight, in order to make the polenta into my pizza crust, I needed to boil it with some milk, water and salt and lay it out on a baking sheet to cool.
Polenta meet people.... people meet polenta.



After letting it set for about 3 hours in the fridge, (you can let it cool up to 24 hours), bake it in the over at 450°F for about an hour or until the edges begin to brown and get all crispy.


While the polenta crust is in the oven, get the shallots and garlic cooking on the stove in some olive oil. Once those are ready add in the tomatoes and cook until they soften. I used heirloom cherry tomatoes because that's what I had and I love the different colors here.



Lets just take a moment to say hello to the cheese. How beautiful are you.... 




Now for my favorite part: MASHING the tomatoes!! Get in real good there with the back of your spoon and then cook a little bit longer to thicken. Make sure to season with some salt and pepper.




Spoon the sauce over the crust, add some sliced mozzarella cheese, and bake until nice and bubbly.


Then viola! Put on some basil. Cut into squares and eat up!


Watcha think? Would you try this pizza swap?

Here's a list of the actual ingredients:

2 tablespoons Olive Oil
3 cups 1percent milk
2 tsp salt
1 1/2 cups
2 large shallots, thinly sliced
2 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
2 pints cherry tomatoes, sliced in half
3/4 lb fresh mozzarella, cubed
10 basil leaves coarsely torn
