Makes about 6 cups

You can serve this delicious golden scramble for breakfast or for dinner.

2 teaspoons olive oil
1/2 onion, chopped
10 mushrooms, sliced
1/2 red or green bell pepper, diced
1 teaspoon dried basil
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
2-4 cups cooked, chilled polenta

Heat oil in a large non-stick skillet. Add onion, mushrooms, and bell pepper and cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally for 3 minutes.

Stir in basil, oregano, thyme, salt, and black pepper. Continue cooking until onion is soft, 3 to 5 minutes. Add a tablespoon or two of water if needed to prevent sticking.

Cut polenta into 1/2-inch cubes. Add to skillet and fold in gently with a spatula. Continue cooking until polenta is heated through, about 5 minutes.
