Ingredients

6 cups chicken broth
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
2 cups regular grits
3 (6-ounce) rolls cheese with garlic, or any garlic-cheddar spread, diced (recommended: Kraft)
1/2 cup milk
4 eggs, beaten
1/2 cup butter
1 cup grated sharp Cheddar

Directions

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

Bring the broth, salt, and pepper, 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 minutes. Add the garlic-cheese 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 Cheddar and bake for 45 minutes, or until set.

Excellent!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

Didn't have the garlic cheese, I used fresh garlic and sharp cheddar. I only did half the recipe-3 cloves garlic and 2... handfuls of cheese. FANTASTIC! Would use for a brunch, definately a company dish or special occasion. Hubby loved it-will make again. Thanks Paula!Read more

No leftovers
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I made these for a dinner with a few friends and had no leftovers. They were so good. I used velveeta and 3 cloves of... garlic instead. The grits were the best anyone had ever had and we live in New Orleans, grits are kinda a big deal.Read more

Great recipe, but have some recommended modifications
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

We had a hard time finding the "garlic cheese rolls" that Paula recommended, so we replaced a few ingredients and it turned... out to be incredible! * Instead of the garlic cheese rolls, buy a block of extra sharp cheddar (we recommend Cracker Barrell) and 6 cloves of fresh garlic. * Stir in 1/2 of the grated cheddar (about 1 1/2 cup) into the mixture along with the butter and milk. Then add the 6 cloves of garlic - minced. * We also added 2 chopped jalapenos to the mix which gave it a wonderful flavor and a little "Texas kick"! It turned out to be an awesome recipe! Hope you enjoy as much as we did!Read more

Very tasty!
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

I always had grits the same old way when I came across this recipe. It was easy to make and tasted so good. The only small... thing I will do next time is add some hot sauce before I bake it because I like my grits with a little heat. Otherwise, this is delicious!Read more

A bit of Southern heaven!!!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

This dish can be for any meal. I'm originally from the Atlanta, GA area with Southern style cooking ingrained in my blood. ... I've added crispy bacon or mild sausage to this recipe for even more "Southern heaven". One can add a host of other flavors to enjoy, such as: peppers (red and/or green and/or jalape?o, hot sausage, onion, ham, pepperoni, etc. I like mine with just cheese and garlic, or just cheese and "buttah" (the real kind). If you add something sweet, such as syrup or sugar, the Grits Gods will get 'cha for sure. That is just plain sacreligious to a Southerner.Read more
