Number Of Ingredients 9

2 ¼ cups water
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup quick-cooking grits
1 (8 ounce) package processed cheese (such as Velveeta®), cubed
½ pound sharp Cheddar cheese, cubed

I used sharp cheddar cheese in this casserole and it was so flavorful. I can't wait to try it with other types of cheese.
