A hearty dish of baked polenta, embellished with onion, garlic, red pepper flakes, sliced Swiss chard, egg and three types of cheese, ricotta, mozzarella and Parmesan. Serve as a side dish or as a main dish topped with a marinara sauce.

Baked Polenta with Swiss Chard and Cheese

2 tablespoons olive oil
3 to 4 MAGGI Vegetarian Vegetable or Chicken Flavor Bouillon Cubes - divided use
1 large white or yellow onion, thinly sliced
2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1 pound Swiss chard, thick stems and ribs removed, leaves cut crosswise into 1/2-inch-wide strips
3 1/2 cups water
1 cup ALBERS® Yellow Corn Meal
1 cup ricotta cheese
2 large eggs
1 3/4 cups (7 ounces) shredded mozzarella cheese - divided use
1/2 cup (1.5 ounces) BUITONI Refrigerated Freshly Shredded Parmesan Cheese - divided use
  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease 2-quart glass baking dish.

Stir in garlic and crushed red pepper; stir in chard. Cover; cook, stirring occasionally, for 10 minutes or until chard is tender. Uncover; stir until any excess liquid evaporates.

Spread half of chard mixture over top. Sprinkle with half of mozzarella cheese and half of Parmesan cheese. Repeat layers with remaining corn meal mixture, chard and cheeses.
