Salt or Sugar Grits?
I was always on Team Sugar Grits until I make this recipe and began to question all that I thought I knew about food and cooking. This recipe is a great savory girt recipe and it will pair great with protein and vegetables. I have eaten this recipe with fish, eggs, and beef with an assortment of vegetables. This is a very versatile recipe that can easily transition from breakfast lunch and dinner. If you like a little spice add some jalapeno peppers to this recipe to kick it up a few notches.
