Dont know how it tastes yet but the recipe text says a 9" pan. This qty of ingredients barely fits in a 3 quart baking dish.

Pretty yummy! The servings are listed as "4" ~ HA! I could have fed the whole neighborhood. More like "10-12", I'd say. I used a 7 X 11 dish, filled it plumb full and filled another 4 X 7 glass dish which I gave to the nighbors. Will use less water in cooking the grits next time (and there WILL be a next time! because it turned out more like pudding than expected.

Ultimately delish!
I agree with bserverance on the instructions being a bit confusing with the pan size. I did something different. I ADDED another HALF recipe portion of the grits and ingredients so it would fill the 9 X 13. I think it made it look more like the show did. Swollen and full! Also, when cooking the grits, I used CHICKEN BROTH instead of water for more flavor. Being the "QueenOfShortcuts & additions", I added cumin. Next time, I'll improvise by chunking an avocado on top per slice with the squeeze of lime and pair it up with white chili. For more cheesy decadence, you can top the bread with colby-jack CHUNKS in the last 5 minutes of the baking time. Terrific!
