Creamy polenta, vegan cheese blend, and flavorful radicchio meet in this vegan meal. This is an adaptation of a popular dish from the Lombardy region of Italy. It typically uses fatty cheeses and butter. This version offers all the flavor without animal fats, making it perfect for vegan diets or for anyone looking to reduce fats in their diet.

  2. Combine vegetable broth and 1 cup water in a large pot and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to medium and keep at a low boil. Pour in unsweetened oat milk and bring to a boil. Sprinkle in cornmeal, whisking constantly to avoid clumps from forming. Reduce heat to medium-low and continue stirring until polenta begins to thicken. Add more water if needed. Stir until polenta has softened and thickened, about 20 minutes.
