Holy fabulous!
That’s what I have to say about these grits.
They are rich, flavorful and super filling. And affordable!!!
That’s exactly the kind of meal I need for feeding my growing brood of boys. Their bottomless pit stomachs are only getting bigger and I’m just here trying to keep up…without going broke.
Sigh!
And that’s why I love this recipe and meal so much…
It’s great for a hearty weekend breakfast (not sure I could pull this off during the weekday, get out the door for school, “WE ARE LATE” rush!!!) or a fun weeknight dinner.
Enjoy!
