Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Grits

    In a pot, bring 4 cups of water to a boil. Slowly stir in the grits and reduce the heat to low. Cook for about 20-25 minutes until thickened, stirring frequently. Add cheddar cheese and stir until melted.

  2. 2

    Cook the Sausage

    In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the country sausage until browned. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

  3. 3

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In the same skillet, add chopped onion and red bell pepper. Sauté until soft, about 5 minutes. Add spinach and cook until wilted.

  4. 4

    Cook the Shrimp

    Add the shrimp to the skillet and cook until they turn pink, about 3-4 minutes. Pour in sherry and tomatoes, stirring to combine.

  5. 5

    Combine and Serve

    Stir the cooked sausage back into the skillet with the shrimp and vegetables. Serve the shrimp mixture over the cheesy grits and drizzle with red eye gravy.
