Ingredients

Instructions

  1. 1 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease an 8-inch square casserole dish. Mix together provolone and fontina cheeses in a bowl.
  2. 2 Heat oil in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Stir in bell pepper, green onions, and garlic; cook until pepper softens, about 3 minutes. Pour in marinara sauce and simmer for 5 to 7 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  3. 3 Spread a thin layer of sauce over the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Arrange 1/3 of the polenta slices in the dish, top with 1/3 of the cheese mixture, and spread a thin layer of sauce over the cheese. Repeat layers twice more. Top casserole with Parmesan cheese.
  4. 4 Bake in the preheated oven until cheese is bubbly and golden brown, about 25 minutes.
