Sausage with Polenta

Ingredients:

½ of a 16oz tube of refrigerated, cooked polenta
1 Tbsp olive oil
4 uncooked, sweet Italian sausage links (about 1 pound), each cut into 4 pieces
½ cup apple juice
¼ c balsamic vinegar
2 Tbsp snipped dried tomatoes
1 8 oz pkg mixed salad greens
¼ cup pine nuts for slivered almonds

Directions:

Preheat oven to 400°. Cut polenta into ¼ in slices; cut each slice in half. Brush with oil. Arrange in a single layer in shallow baking pan. Bake 15 minutes or until light brown, turning once.

Meanwhile, in a large skillet, cook sausage over medium heat for 5 minutes, turning to brown evenly. Remove from skillet, drain fat and wipe skillet.

Return sausage to skillet; add apple juice, vinegar and tomatoes. Bring to a boil; reduce heat and simmer, covered 8 to 10 minutes or until sausage is no longer pink.
To serve, divide salad greens among four plates. Arrange polenta slices and sausage pieces next to greens. Drizzle balsamic mixture over it all. Sprinkle with nuts.
