Ingredients

Polenta (Basic Recipe):
1 cup polenta (150 g) (see recipe notes*)
3/4 cup full-fat coconut milk* (200 ml)
1 1/4 cup vegetable broth (300 ml)
2-3 tbsp nutritional yeast flakes or vegan parmesan cheese (optional)

Mushroom Spinach Topping:

1 tbsp olive oil or coconut oil
1 onion sliced
7 oz mushrooms (200 g) sliced
2 cloves garlic minced
1-2 tbsp soy sauce
2 cups spinach roughly chopped
salt, black pepper to taste
2-3 tbsp pine nuts (options see text above)

Instructions

Polenta:

Bring coconut milk and vegetable broth to a boil in a pot. Stir in polenta by using a whisk.
Reduce heat to a low simmer and continue to whisk for 1-2 minutes to avoid lumps.
Then cover and let simmer for about 10 minutes (or according packaging instructions*), stirring occasionally. (If the polenta thickens too much you can add additional milk and/or water and stir to thin.)
