A Safe Place

Grilled Polenta with Balsamic Drizzle
2 cups water
2 cups soy milk
2 garlic cloves, smashed
1 rosemary sprig
1 thyme sprig
1 cup instant polenta
salt and pepper
1 cup balsamic vinegar
extra virgin olive oil

1.  Lightly oil a 9-inch square glass baking dish.  In a sauce pan, combine the water, soy milk, garlic, rosemary and thyme and bring to a boil.  Remove from heat and steep for 10 minutes. Discard the herbs and return the mixture to a boil.  Stir until thick and not gritty, about 10 minutes.  Season with salt and pepper, then pour into the glass dish and cool to room temperature.  Refrigerate for 2 hours.

2.  Boil the balsamic vinegar in a sauce pan until reduced to 1/4 cup, then cool.  Unmold the polenta and cut into eight slices.  Grill the polenta over high heat for 4 minutes each side.  Brush with the olive oil, then drizzle with the balsamic vinegar.  

This dish is heavenly.  


     Do you have a place where you feel safe?  Everyone needs this, and most people consider that safe place home or family.  A peaceful, safe home is where self-sacrificing harmony occurs.  For self-sacrificing harmony to occur, there needs to be trust and love.  Are you doing all that you can; are you striving to make your home a safe place?

"For He will command his angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways."
