From Minnie: People in some areas may serve polenta…but we are in the south, so we serve grits! Grits topped with gravy or alongside an egg…grits with fish or alongside a slab of ham. Anyway, anytime…we love grits! And this recipe is no exception. It is delicious as a side for whatever protein you happen to be serving. It is easy as can be…very filling…and just simply delicious!
