Cereal Polenta with Gruyere

Today we prepare cereal polenta with Gruyere, a simple dish that warms the stomach and heart, especially in the cold months.

This polenta is not the classic one made with only corn flour, but there are as many as 5 different types of gluten-free flours.

I bought this flour mix at the supermarket and then followed the cooking instructions on the package to make it.

FAQ (Questions and Answers)

  • Will you remake this recipe for cereal polenta with Gruyere?

    I’ll leave you some info on one of these wonderful flours.
    AMARANTH for its high fiber content ensures better intestinal transit, promoting the digestive process. Compared to other cereals, it contains a lot of lysine, important for the formation of proteins. Finally, we must not underestimate the mineral content, especially iron and calcium.

Hello, I'm Simona, and my page is called BriCciola in cucina, because I dedicated it to my mom and dad, who have called me that since I was little. I'm not a chef, and in my life, I've always dealt with completely different things, but cooking, along with dancing, has always been one of my great passions. However, my greatest inspiration came from the dishes prepared first by my grandmother and now by my mom. Here on my cooking blog, I'll guide you from appetizers to desserts, with recipes designed for a healthy and mindful lifestyle. Balanced dishes, carefully chosen ingredients, and lots of flavors, because eating well never means giving up pleasure. I love eating, but I also like taking care of my health, my family's health, and, in a way, the health of everyone who tries my recipes. That's why daily life should be rich in flavor, but always with a focus on healthy eating. Thank you, I look forward to seeing you.
