(1 LB of ground elk and 1 LB of polenta)

(Saute the elk meat with garlic and onion at medium heat; season with your favorite spices then add a can of your favorite tomato base sauce - I used a can of zesty garlic and tomato with basil)

(add your favorite chopped/sliced vegetables; I have sliced mushroom , chopped egglant and yellow zucchini -- cook for maybe for 10 minutes at medium heat)

(Drain most of the liquid of the sauce because the polenta and ricotta cheese will generate more liquid; pour a layer on a greased dish)

(Layer with 1/4" sliced polenta)

(Layer with ricotta cheese)

(Pour the remaining mixture and top with your favorite cheese - I normally use 4-6 Italian cheese mixture but all I have is mozzarella - top with chopped basil if desired)

(Bake in preheated oven at 350F for ~30-45 minutes)

Enjoy with your favorite red. Cheers!

I too have trouble with dairy (lactose intolerance). Polenta is just Italian for cornmeal boiled into porridge or just look as grits in a different form.:D
