About


I love grits and I am always in search of new ways to make them into a meal, not just a side dish. I found this fabulous recipe in my Taste of Home Cookbook and OMG was it scrumptious. If you like grits I really think you will love this simple dish and you are not fond of grits I still think you should try it because it may just change your mind.
This dish makes a great breakfast item with some fruit or a totally awesome dinner with a side salad.
