How to Make Roasted Winter Vegetables With Cheesy Polenta

  1. Preheat oven to 500°F (260°C).
  2. In a large bowl, toss 1 large head cauliflower (cut into florets), 1 medium sweet potato (peeled and cubed), and 1 medium onion (cut into wedges) with 2 tablespoons olive oil, 4 cloves garlic (minced), 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, and salt to taste.
  3. Spread the vegetables in a single layer on a large rimmed baking sheet.
  4. Roast for 25-30 minutes, stirring halfway through, until the vegetables are tender and slightly browned.
  5. While the vegetables roast, combine 2 cups vegetable broth and 1 cup water in a small saucepan.
  6. Bring the broth mixture to a boil.
  7. Slowly whisk in 1 cup coarse cornmeal, 1 teaspoon dried rosemary, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper until smooth.
  8. Reduce heat to low, cover, and cook for 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the polenta is thick and creamy.
  9. Remove from heat and stir in 1 cup shredded Parmesan cheese (or your favorite cheese).
  10. Serve the roasted vegetables over a generous portion of creamy polenta.
