Bon Appetit, ya'll!

Good Morning ya'll.  What a beautiful day today has started out to be.  The sun is shining and there is a cool, crisp feeling in  the air.  I gotta get outside.  Before I do, I think I'll start the morning with a good ol' southern breakfast.  How about some bacon and creamy, cheesy grits and big glass of OJ to wash it all down.  YUM!  Now I know some of you may not be a fan of the grit, but really if you haven't tried it, YOU SHOULD!  I have found that this is the best technique for me to use when making grits.

Creamy Cheesy Grits

makes 2 servings

2 cups water

1 tsp salt

1/4 heavy cream or milk

1/2 cup old fashioned grits

1/2 cup shredded sharp cheddar

1 Tbsp butter

Bring water and salt to a rolling boil. 

Slowly stir in grits until no lumps remain.

Reduce heat to low and cook until thickened. 

Stirring occasionally. 

Add in the cream, cheese and butter. Serve.

Note:  Many recipes for grits suggest that after you stir in grits that you should

cover the pan.  My experience is that this creates a BIG mess, I have better

luck leaving the pan open, the grits don't seem to bubble as much.

I hope you try it, and love it!
