Question

Answer 1

Most important thing is to use regular - not quick cooking, not instant grits. Just to serve as a side dish with breakfast, cook the grits according to package directions take off the heat and stir in a stick of butter until it's melted, then beat in an egg - makes them really rich. Great with grillades! Another thing you can make is baked cheese grits. Make your grits on the thin side - to six cups of cooked grits add 1 lb shredded cheese (Velveeta works great for this!), 1 stick of butter, 1/2 cup milk and 3 beaten eggs. Mix well and pour into a 9x13 baking pan and bake at 350 degrees F for 50-60 minutes. The longer the grits cook, the creamier they get. You can serve this hot or let it cool and slice 1/2 inch thick slices and fry in a little butter. Serve some shrimp creole over the fried grits and your boyfriend will think you are a true gourmet!

In Texas my mother occasionally served grits as a substitute for mashed potatoes.Try beef roast with the natural gravy atop the grits. WOW ! Or, southern fried chicken with the pan cream gravy over the grits.She also served it as a hot cereal for breakfast with sugar and cream much like oatmeal or Cream Of Wheat is served in the South when it is cold outside.Memories are made of this !

Answer 3

Prepare grits enough for a bread loaf pan. Pour cooked grits, seasoned with salt, pepper and spices to your taste, into a buttered bread loaf pan. Refrigerate overnight. Turn out in the morning and slice very thinly, like thin bread ( the thinner the tastier), pan fry lightly on both sides. YUM (I used to add cooked mashed carrots and such to vary the flavor.
