Ingredients:

Serving

1 medium orange
2 cups water
1 1/2 cups low-fat milk
1/4 tsp salt
3/4 cup yellow cornmeal (fine )
1/4 cup mascarpone
1/4 cup fat free greek yogurt
4 tbsp honey, divided

Directions:

Zest the orange to get 1 1/2 teaspoons; set the zest aside. Remove the rest of the peel and white pith with a sharp knife. Working over a bowl, cut the segments from their surrounding membranes. Set aside for garnish.
Combine water, milk, and salt in a large heavy saucepan and bring to a boil. Gradually whisk in polenta (or cornmeal) and return to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low to maintain an even bubble and whisk until the polentina thickens, 1 to 5 minutes (depending on what type you're using). Remove from the heat, cover, and let stand for 5 minutes.
Meanwhile, combine mascarpone, yogurt, 1 tablespoon honey, and 1/2 teaspoon of the orange zest in a small bowl.
Whisk the remaining 3 tablespoons honey and the remaining 1 teaspoon zest into the polentina. Divide among 4 bowls and top with a dollop of the mascarpone topping. Garnish with the reserved orange segments and sprinkle with tarragon, if desired. Serve immediately.
