Preparation Instructions

1

Prepare the grits

In a large saucepan, bring 4 cups of water to a boil. Stir in the grits and salt, then reduce the heat to low. Cook for about 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally until the grits are thick and creamy.

2

Add butter and cream

Once the grits are cooked, stir in the butter and heavy cream until fully incorporated. Adjust the seasoning with salt and black pepper to taste.

3

Incorporate cheese

Mix in the cheddar cheese until melted and well combined.

4

Serve

Spoon the grits into bowls and garnish with chopped green onions. Serve hot as a second course.
