I'm not a fan of grits, but I loved this recipe. The shrimp and cheese sauce were so flavorful that I didn't even miss the grits.

This recipe was a bit too bland for my taste. I added some extra salt and pepper and it was much better.

I tried this recipe and it was a disaster. The grits were lumpy and the shrimp were overcooked. I will not be making this dish again.
