Cheese Grits

1/3 cup quick-cooking grits (none of that instant stuff for goodness sake)1 1/3 cups water1/2 tsp. salt1/4 tsp. black peppercouple dashes garlic powder (not fresh garlic…just trust me, it’s better my way)2 1/2 ounces sharp cheddar cheese, grated

Bring the water and salt to a boil in a smallish saucepan. Add the grits to the boiling water using a whisk. Using the whisk ensures that you don’t get lumps in your grits.

Now cover the pot, lower the heat to a simmer and cook the grits according to the package directions.

When the grits are done, stir in the black pepper and garlic powder.

Next, add the grated cheddar and stir until well blended.

Enjoy!
