Grits are a naturally gluten free classic Southern staple, both as a savory stick-to-your-bones breakfast food and as a tasty side dish. Traditionally served with shrimp, grits are essentially coarsely ground cornmeal that is cooked until soft, similar to polenta. Great as both a hearty breakfast alternative to hot cereal or as a delicious side dish, grits are relatively easy to prepare and perfect in a pinch! Here is a great roundup with 5 of my favorite vegetarian and gluten free Southern-style grits recipes!
