Caprese Polenta Bruschetta

Caprese polenta bruschetta is a blend of my roots and my love for Northern Italy. I grew up with my mother's cas'e ove meatballs, but I love the aroma of canederli, can't say no to buffalo mozzarella, and who can resist a good plate of polenta? This mix of influences brings together dishes you might call 'fusion,' but with a uniquely Italian twist. This recipe is quick, uses just a few ingredients, takes little effort, and is a great way to use up leftover polenta from the day before.
