Ironically when I was young my Grandma made cornmeal mush, always saving the leftovers to fry. As a child I wouldn't eat the stuff, now I love it. Grandma always knew best!

I too came up with a similar idea that worked very well - I made some pastry using half polenta flour, half wholewheat flour mixed with grated carrot and a touch of olive oil. It worked really well, far better than I expected. Something else worth experimenting with is mixing grated carrots into an omelette mix. It fills out the omelette immensely, making it more like a tortilla, and with the right added ingredients (take your pick from whatever you might normally put with an omelette), you have something that is a lot more filling. hi everyone

I've been meaning to play around with crust creations and am feeling inspired by Helen, so maybe I'll have some ideas to share soon :-) Cookingpanda: Unfortunately, I don’t have a good recipe for a pie crust and have resorted to making desserts like rhubarb crisp where a crust isn’t necessary and a sprinkling of a wholegrain topping is used instead.
