Chef's Notes

Prep
Make the salsa ahead. Assemble before serving.

Prepared Polenta
You can find prepared polenta (it’s usually sold in tubes) in the pasta aisle. It’s also pre-cooked so you don’t have to bake it, though most people do.

Leftover Salsa
Enjoy leftover salsa on tacos, in burritos, or served with chips. It’s also pretty great on its own!

Bites to Bowls
Instead of serving as polenta bites, cube the polenta and serve as a bowl. Top with refried beans, diced avocado, and salsa — and enjoy!
