Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Grits

    In a medium saucepan, bring the water or chicken broth to a boil. Stir in the NC milled grits and salt, reducing the heat to low. Cover and simmer for 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally until the grits are thick and creamy.

  2. 2

    Prepare Additions

    While the grits are cooking, prepare your chosen additions. Cook the bacon until crispy, sauté the spinach in a bit of olive oil, and fry the eggs to your liking.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Grits Bowl

    Once the grits are cooked, remove them from heat and stir in the shredded cheddar cheese until melted. Spoon the grits into bowls and top with your choice of additions: crumbled bacon, sautéed spinach, and a fried egg.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Serve immediately while hot, and enjoy your custom Grits Bowl!
