This recipe is a great way to use up leftover chili. I had some chili in the freezer that I needed to use up, and this recipe was the perfect solution. The grits were a great addition to the chili.

I made this dish for my family last night and they loved it! The grits were creamy and cheesy, and the chili was the perfect amount of spicy. I will definitely be making this again.
