Ingredients
1 ¾ cup pinto beans with juice (15 oz can)
½ cup fresh or frozen corn kernels
½ cup prepared salsa
1 teaspoon ground cumin
½ teaspoon dried oregano
¼ teaspoons alt
12 ounces prepared polenta
2 to 3 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
1 cup grated sharp cheddar
Directions
Heat oven to 350. Lightly oil a 10 inch cast-iron skillet or an 11 inch baking dish. Empty the beans and their juice into a bowl and mash with a potato masher. Add the corn, salsa, cumin, oregano, and salt and mix thoroughly. Set aside.
Slice 12 ounces of polenta roll into ¼ inch thick rounds. Arrange the rounds in the prepared skillet or baking dish slightly overlapping one another. Spoon the bean mixture evenly over the polenta, sprinkle with cilantro, and then the cheese.
Cover and bake for 15 minutes and then uncover and bake for a bout 15 more minutes, until the beans are bubbling and hot. For a crisp, golden topping, place under the broiler for about 2 minutes. Let sit for 10 minutes before serving.
