Cheesy polenta topped with eggs and a bit of Italian or Turkey sausage, perfect for a Sunday brunch. Any cheese could be used but my favorite is Fontina or an old flavor filled cheddar. Similar to sausage, eggs and potato but much healthier with perfect matching of flavors. Very easy to halve the recipe along with pictures.

Turned out well, quick and easy to make. I used pepper jack cheese instead of fontina. Try adding some white wine to the skillet you used to brown the chicken breasts to deglaze the pan to gather up those tasty brown bits and serve with the resulting jus.
