Preparation Instructions

1

Cook Grits

In a large saucepan, bring the water to a boil. Stir in the grits and salt. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally until the grits are thick and creamy.

2

Add Jalapeños

Stir in the diced jalapeño peppers into the cooked grits. Cook for an additional 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.

3

Incorporate Cheese and Butter

Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the shredded cheddar cheese and butter until melted and well combined. Adjust seasoning with black pepper and more salt if needed.

4

Serve

Serve the jalapeño cheese grits warm, garnished with additional diced jalapeños if desired.
