Mix water, cornmeal and salt in a 2-qt microwave-safe bowl. Cover with vented plastic wrap and microwave on high, whisking twice, until thick and smooth (about 10 minutes).
Meanwhile, heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Sauté zucchini and mushrooms 5 minutes, stirring often, until tender. Transfer to a serving bowl.
Add beef to skillet; cook, breaking up with a wooden spoon, until browned, about 3 minutes. Stir in wine (if using), rosemary and garlic; cook 1 minute. Stir in marinara and bring to a simmer.
Add zucchini and mushroom mixture; heat through. Stir Parmesan into polenta. Spoon polenta onto plates and top with sauce.
