Garlic Cheddar Cheese Grits
Instructions
1. Heat 4 cups of water to boiling in a pot over medium heat.
2. Add 1 teaspoon salt and 1 cup quick grits.
3. Cook for 3 to 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until grits are done (smooth and thickened).
4. Remove from heat and add 1 stick of butter or margarine, 2 cups grated Cheddar cheese, 2 well-beaten eggs, 1/4 cup milk, and 2 teaspoons of bottled minced garlic.
5. Stir everything together and pour into a oven-proof dish that has been sprayed with cooking oil.
6. Bake at 400 degrees for 20 to 25 minutes. (In the video, I baked my casserole at 425 degrees for 20 minutes, but I think 400 degrees will be better.)
7. Remove grits casserole from the oven, let stand for 5 minutes, and serve while hot!
