Zucchini Polenta - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 cup yellow cornmeal
    1 cup water
    2 cups chicken broth
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    1 large zucchini, shredded and drained on a paper towel
    3/4 cup grated cheddar cheese
    1 tablespoon butter or 1 tablespoon margarine
    1 (8 ounce) can tomato sauce
    1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
Preparation
    Mix the cornmeal and water together in a small bowl.
    Bring the broth and salt to a boil in a saucepan over medium-high heat.
    Lower heat to medium-low and slowly add cornmeal, stirring for about 2 minutes or until the polenta is smooth (use a long-handled spoon to stir the polenta; it bubbles up and will burn).
    Remove pan from heat; add in zucchini, cheddar cheese, and butter; stir until well mixed and cheese is melted.
    Spread mixture into an 8-inch square glass baking dish that has been coated lightly with cooking spray.
    Spoon tomato sauce over the top; sprinkle with parmesan cheese.
    Bake in a 350\u00b0 oven, uncovered, for 30 minutes or until heated through.
    Let stand 5 minutes, then cut into squares to serve.
