Mini Polenta Pizzas

I came up with idea for these guys when we had some friends over for a movie and I needed to come up with a quick, easy appetizer. These were both quick and easy, and they were also very yummy.

Ingredients
-1 tube of polenta
~5 oz fresh mozzarella
~7 oz of pizza sauce
-chiffonade a handful of fresh basil
-2 T EVOO

Steps:
(Turn your broiler on)
1. Cut the polenta into 1/4 inch thick rounds, and place on a baking sheet covered with tin foil. Lightly baste the slices with EVOO and broil for about 4 minutes. (Basically, the point of this step is just to heat your polenta slices through, so the EVOO is probably not necessary.

2. Top each slice with a small spoonful of pizza sauce and a slice of mozzarella. Broil until cheese is brown and melty.
 3. Top with basil.
