If you like polenta, then you'll like this recipe

Very good recipe if you tweak it to your taste. I added more eggs (8) and used mozzarella as I didn't have muenster. I added pepper to the polenta while it was in the double boiler. I feel like I could have added garlic to the onions and it would have been really great.

I also had fresh oregano on hand so I chopped some up and put on top. Added a little depth to the flavors.

Overall, great recipe and I'd make it again

Absolutely delicious! And I sauted the onions in a garlic flavored olive oil. Polenta is more of a "bland" food, kinda like oatmeal. Spice is determined by the sausage (or sauce) you use. Very comforting and filling. I used soy mozzerella and regular parmesano Reggioano. It lowered the fat a bit. It is a wonderful recipe! My family loves it.

Bland

I've had plenty of good, fattening breakfast casseroles, so an attempt at a low fat one is worth of some praise, but this one fails with the taste. I thought that using cornmeal for the base was the worst part. Grits would have been much better. I did like the touch of using onions to flavor the base. I also didn't care for the eggs dropped onto the top. I'd have much rather have scrambled the eggs and done away with at least half of the yolks. I will not recommend this or be making it again. With several tweaks, this could have been much better.

If you bake them in medium

If you bake them in medium muffin tin in six spaces that is a serving, i did it and it worked out using the exact ingredients.

The recipe calls for 6 eggs and states that it makes 6 servings; therefore a serving size must be one-sixth of the pan, no?
