Lazy Night Lazy Food

Had this for dinner last night Corn Chowder with wholemeal toast healthy ain't i? lol actually i'm just lazy and sick of thinking what to have for dinner so i opted for this lazy meal and its healthy too!

And while buying ingredients for this soup at NTUC Fairprice the word Organic Polenta caught my eye i surf the net on my mobile for the meaning and to my surprise its grounded cornmeal to think i was always skipping recipes with cornmeal cause i have to go quite far to get them haha so we learnt something don't we =D.

Here's the recipe adapted with some modifications from here.
