- 473.18 ml whipping cream or 473.18 ml half-and-half cream
- 1892.72 ml chicken broth, divided

directions
- Grease 13 x 9 baking dish. Bring cream & 6 cups of chicken broth to a boil, stir in grits & cook over medium heat until they return to a boil. Reduce to a simmer, cover & cook for 25-30 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add milk if needed to cook to desire consistency (should resemble slightly runny oatmeal when finished).
- Cook collards in remaining 2 cups of chicken broth for 10 minutes. Drain & blot dry with paper towel to remove excess water. Add butter & cheese to grits, stir until butter & cheese melt. Stir in collards. Place in casserole dish, top with crumbled bacon. Bake @ 350 degrees until lightly brown on top.

I made this in much, much less time. About 30 min. I think cooking the grits on the stovetop shorted the back time considerably. I added ham and spinach and mushrooms to mine, (I do not like how bacon can get chewy when left in a casserole)<br/><br/>I also made a home made white gravy and some Texas Pete for a kick. <br/><br/>This was a big hit with the family.
