Today we're taking homemade polenta to a whole new level… (way beyond skipping the stuff that comes in the tube). I ground my own polenta from popcorn! Who knew it was so easy?

Grilled Zucchini with Lemon and Fresh Basil by Rockin Robin

This recipe is from The Homemade Flour Cookbook by Erin of Naturally Ella. Erin is one of my best blogging friends (BBFs forever!) and I couldn’t be more proud of her and her beautiful new book. She breaks down the basics of making your own flour from all sorts of grains seeds nuts and legumes. It’s also filled with recipes for every type of flour. (Side note: if you’re not inclined to mill your own flour you’ll still love her book for all the healthy recipes.) I can’t wait to try her Quesadillas made with Quinoa Tortillas Buckwheat Enchiladas and Blueberry Amaranth Muffins.

I tried grinding it two ways the first time using my cheap coffee grinder and the second time using my Vitamix. (See my notes at the bottom of the post for more details).

This homemade polenta was creamier and tastier than the kind I normally buy in the store. Plus it only took a few minutes to grind and cooked faster than usual. (Less than 10 minutes on the stove).
