Ingredients
- 2 cups low sodium chicken broth
- 1 1/2 cups water
-
2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic (smashed and peeled)
- 3/4 cups quick cook polenta
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt

Instructions
- This recipe originated on Giada Entertains. Episode: Spring Supper.
- In a dutch oven, bring the chicken broth, water, olive oil and garlic to a boil over medium high heat. Reduce the heat to medium low and whisk in the polenta. Season with the salt and cook for 10 minutes stirring occasionally with a wooden spoon. Stir in the parmesan, pecorino, mascarpone and butter. Cook for 5 minutes stirring often. Fold in the spinach and cook until wilted, about 5 minutes longer. Add a 1/4 cup water if the mixture gets too thick. Remove from the heat.
- Pour the polenta onto a large board or platter and spoon the bolognese on top. Serve with grated parmesan cheese over the top.
