Description

This hearty polenta layer dish is a wonderful dish for cozy autumn evenings. The creamy polenta harmonizes perfectly with the spicy mushroom filling and the crispy bacon. I like to make this variant of lasagna when things need to be quick, but still something special should come to the table. The preparation is straightforward and the result tastes simply delicious. Ideal for a hearty lunch or a hearty dinner. If you like it vegetarian, you can simply omit the bacon.
