6 cups chicken broth

1 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon pepper

1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

2 cups regular grits

16 ounces Cheddar, cubed

1/2 cup milk

4 large eggs, beaten

1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter

8 ounces grated sharp white Cheddar

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 4-quart casserole dish.

Bring the broth, salt, pepper, and garlic powder to a boil in a 2-quart saucepan. Stir in the grits and whisk until completely combined. Reduce the heat to low and simmer until the grits are thick, about 8 to 10 minutes. Add the cubed Cheddar and milk and stir. Gradually stir in the eggs and butter, stirring until all are combined. Pour the mixture into the prepared casserole dish. Sprinkle with the white Cheddar and bake for 35 to 40 minutes or until set.

If you never liked grits, your head will tilt now. It can look like cornbread, but much smoother, and has everything a good... comfort breakfast contains!Read more

I am a culinary student who likes to be adventurous. I add blue cheese instead of cheddar and it was delish.

paula's recipe with some tweaking is a hit
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

i halved this recipe when i made it and then halved the fatty ingredients again for a healthier twist (i'm sure it's every... bit as delicious). here's what i used: 1 1/2 cups chicken broth/ 1 1/2 cups water 1/4 teaspoon salt 1/8 teaspoon pepper 3 fresh garlic cloves and 1 fresh shallot clove 1 cup quick grits 8 ounces velveeta cubed (it melts nicely and is lower fat than reg cheese) 1/4 cup milk 2 large eggs, beaten 3 tablespoons full spectrum light butter substitute (1 for garlic and 2 4 ounces grated sharp white Cheddar i sauteed the garlic and shallots with 1 tablespoon of full spectrum spread and then added broth and ingredients to the pan, following the rest of the recipe instructions. it looked gorgeous right out of the oven and i added a little crystal hot sauce to the grits for serious breakfast heaven (we will probably use the remainder for dinner sides this week). thanks paula- i can't imagine what these would taste like following your original decadent recipe, but my way was plenty rich and deelish!
