Spicy Polenta Croutons

 Serving: 10 (as a crouton for an appetizer)

Ingredients
1.  1 (2oz) pack of polenta 
2.  1 teaspoon of red chili pepper flakes

3.   1/3 cup of olive oil

4.  1 1/2 tablespoons of nutritional yeast

5.   1 tablespoon of chopped garlic

Salt and Pepper to taste

Directions

1.  Pre-heat your oven to 400 degrees F

2. Slice your polenta into 1/2" cubes

3. In a small mixing cup, add chili pepper flakes, olive oil, nutritional yeast, chopped garlic and salt and pepper to taste. Mix well!

4. In a large mixing bowl, place cubed pieces of polenta. Add olive oil mixture and make sure the polenta is evenly coated. 

5.  Spray a large baking pan (I used 2 9x13" pans). Lay out the polenta making sure they are flat on the pan.

6. Place in the oven for 35 minutes. At the half way mark, take out and flip the polenta over so that both sides get crispy.
