$2.83/servingDreaming of tacos? We can relate. Satisfy those Tex-Mex cravings the moment you wake up! Polenta is super easy to make in the microwave, so you can prepare it even if you’re still half asleep. Top your bowls with creamy avocado and a fried egg—it's a breakfast fiesta to energize you for the day ahead.
Toppings (optional): grated cheese, salsa, or hot sauce
- In Round Steamer, combine polenta and salsa mixes, water, and 1 cup milk. Cover; microwave on high 5 min.
- Remove from microwave (use caution when handling steamer—it will be hot!) and whisk well to break up lumps. Whisk in remaining 1 cup milk and 1 tbsp butter.
- Microwave, uncovered, on high 10 min, whisking halfway through. Let stand in microwave 5 min.
- Meanwhile, thinly slice avocado.
- Heat remaining 1⁄2 tbsp butter in a large, non-stick fry pan over medium heat. Crack in eggs; cook for 3 min or until whites are set and yolk is done to your liking.
- To serve, whisk polenta and divide between 4 large bowls. Top each bowl with 1 cup spinach, then egg and avocado slices. Add toppings, if desired.
No Steamer? Make polenta on the stovetop! In a large pot over medium heat, combine mix, 2 cups each water and milk, and 1 tbsp butter. Stir constantly until thickened, about 35–40 min. Whisk before serving.
Don’t have Poco Picante Salsa Mix? Stir in 2 tsp of your favourite hot sauce.
