Kiss my GRITS!!

Grits—also an acronym for Girls Raised In The South—that’s me 🙂

I love eggs n’ grits. Love love love them. Yes, I love fried eggs, but I fry them now in nothing but a non-stick pan and I let the centers get a little more done than usual.

But I’ve come a long way with my grits.

I used to use the little bags of instant and pour on butter, cheese, and salt. These were good. I liked them.

And then I saw the light. I tried cooking “real” grits while at home during a college break. They didn’t take much longer to cook and had a much creamier consistency. I’ve never gone back to the instant

This morning, I had eggs, grits, and sautéed’ mushrooms.  My grits included chopped scallions and shredded cheddar-jack, reduced fat. I loved the mix of the  cheese and light green onions.

I'm a very proud G.R.I.T.!! :) I love grits... the best grits I've ever had are at The Flying Biscuit here in Atlanta. They have the creamy dreamy grits that are just so heavenly!! Another good "grits" memory is when we went camping when I was a kid and my friend's dad made some amazing cheese grits over the campfire. Oh, those were incredible!! I agree, stovetop grits are way better than those ol instant packets!!
