Baked Cheese Grits
"My mother made this recipe for Christmas every year and even people who HATE grits always came back for seconds! DELICIOUS!"
- Ready In:
- 1hr 5mins
- Ingredients:
- 6
- Serves:
-
8
ingredients
- 4 cups milk (Whole is best, 2% is fine.)
- 1 cup quick-cooking grits
- 3⁄4 cup butter (I recommend real butter.)
- 1⁄2 cup grated parmesan cheese
- 1 triangle Laughing Cow cheese (I sometimes use 1 C of shredded sharp cheddar instead.)
- 1⁄2 teaspoon salt
directions
- Barely bring milk to a boil, add grits slowly stirring the whole time. Cook time for grits may vary so follow the time on the quick cooking grits box.
- When grits are done, add 3/4 stick of butter, add cheese slowly and add the salt.
- Pour into a 13x9 pan.
- **VERY IMPORTANT** Let the grits cool, either sitting on the counter top or in the fridge.
- Once cool, poke holes in the top of the grits (I use the tip of a spoon).
- Melt the remaining butter and pour on top of the grits.
- Top with the grated parmesan cheese.
- Bake for 40 minutes at 400 degrees.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
I'm 23 years old, married, have a two year old son and a daughter due August 9th, 2009. My husband and I live in beautiful Kailua, HI (where we born and raised!) with our mother in law, aunt in law, and brother in law. We recently implemented a new cooking plan that I cook two nights a week, MIL cooks two nights a week, BIL cooks two nights a week, and my hubby cooks one night a week (but I think I'll end up with his nights, haha!) So I am here to find easy and quick recipes to prepare for a decent sized family!
If you try any of the recipes I've actually posted, I'd love to hear your feedback, tips, and suggestions! I am a pretty novice cook and since my mother passed away when I was only 21, I have basically taught myself how to turn the stove on! Thank you! :)
