Time 1h15m

Yield 6 side dishes, 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 teaspoons salt
1 cup quick-cooking grits
1 1/4 cups half-and-half
2 tablespoons butter or 2 tablespoons margarine
1 1/2 cups old cheddar cheese, grated
4 stalks green onions, chopped
black pepper

Steps:

  • Bring 4 cups of water to a boil in a medium saucepan. Add the salt, then slowly add the grits in a thin steady stream. Stir constantly with a wooden spoon. Reduce heat to low and simmer, stirring occasionally, until grits thicken, 5-7 minutes.
  • Add the half and half and butter to the grits and stir. Bring to a simmer, stirring occasionally. Cover the pot, reduce the heat to low, and cook, stirring occasionally for 45 minutes, until very smooth and creamy. Off the heat, stir in the cheddar cheese, green onions, and pepper. Season to taste and serve hot.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my grits turned out lumpy. I think I might have added the cheese too quickly.

These grits were a bit too cheesy for my taste. I think I'll use half the amount of cheese next time.

I'm a vegetarian, so I used vegetable broth instead of chicken broth. The grits were still delicious.

These grits were a bit too thick for my taste. I think I'll add more milk next time.

I added some crumbled sausage to these grits and it was delicious. I think next time I'll add some chopped bell peppers and onions too.
