Cheesy Polenta Casserole

Ingredients

• 1 teaspoon olive oil
• 1 green bell pepper, chopped
• 1/4 teaspoon minced garlic
• 2 green onions, chopped
• 1 (14 ounce) jar marinara sauce
• 1/4 cup shredded fontina cheese
• 3/4 cup shredded provolone or mozzarella cheese
• 1 (16 ounce) tube ready-made polenta, cut into 1/4-inch slices
• 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly oil a 8x8-inch casserole dish with cooking spray and set aside.
2. Heat olive oil in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Stir in green pepper, garlic, and green onions; cook until the pepper softens, about 3 minutes. Pour in marinara sauce and simmer 5 to 7 minutes, stirring occasionally.
3. Mix together fontina and provolone in a bowl. Spread a thin layer of sauce over the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Arrange 1/3 of the polenta slices in the dish, top with 1/3 the fontina and provolone mixture. Spread a thin layer of sauce over cheese. Repeat layers twice. Top casserole with Parmesan cheese.
4. Bake in preheated oven until cheese is bubbly and golden brown, about 25 minutes.
