Ingredients

Method

Directions

1

Prepare the Grits

In a saucepan, bring 4 cups of water to a boil. Slowly add in the grits, reduce heat to low, and cook for about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally until thick.

2

Add Cheese and Milk

Once the grits are cooked, remove from heat and stir in the butter, cheddar cheese, and milk until creamy. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

3

Cook the Protein

In a skillet, cook your choice of bacon, sausage, tempeh, or chorizo until crispy. Set aside on a paper towel to drain excess grease.

4

Make the Biscuits

In a bowl, combine flour, baking powder, salt, and mix well. Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Gradually add milk until a soft dough forms. Roll out and cut into rounds.

5

Bake the Biscuits

Preheat the oven to 450°F (230°C). Place the biscuits on a baking sheet and bake for 10-12 minutes until golden brown.

6

Cook the Eggs

In a non-stick skillet, fry the eggs to your preference (sunny-side up, scrambled, etc.).

7

Serve

Plate the cheesy grits, top with cooked eggs and crispy protein. Serve with freshly baked biscuits on the side.
