re: #326 eclectic infidel

I had grits for the first time at the Tennessee Grill in the same neighborhood I mentioned. Two eggs plus grits was like $3 and change. And I have to say, I really liked the grits. Good with butter but I’ve had homemade recipes too that included ingredients like garlic and ham. I’ve also experimented with various jams. What a great medium.

Cheese.
Try cheese grits.

4 cups chicken broth
1 cup quick cooking grits (5-minute grits)
1 1/2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese
1 cup milk
2 large eggs, beaten
tabasco to taste

Preheat oven to 350. Bring broth to a boil, add the grits and cook according to package directions. Remove from heat and stir in cheese. Combine milk, eggs and tabasco in another bowl and stir into the grits. Bake at 350 in lightly greased casserole dish for 30 minutes.
