Cheesy Southern Grits – Southern grits are cooked in chicken stock, cream, and tons of spices to make them incredibly flavorful and finished with two kinds of cheeses to make them extra gooey and rich
Hi! It’s Certified Pastry Aficionady back with a new recipe! Moving to the South almost 7 years ago has been the greatest thing for many reasons. But I have to say – my tastebuds have become the biggest winner in this move. I’ve gotten to try the most incredible foods that I just didn’t get exposed to in Florida – fried green tomatoes, pimento cheese, the best biscuits in the world, country gravy, and, my favorite, Cheesy Southern Grits.
Sure, in Florida, we had grits. But I had only seen plain, boring grits without any seasoning and a yucky, gritty, watery texture. Yuck.
When I got to Atlanta, almost every breakfast spot served their own version of delicious, creamy grits. Everyone raved about grits so I decided to give them another shot. After one bite, I was shocked – what is this thick, flavorful, starchy side? These cannot be the same CHEESY Southern Grits that I scoffed at back at home!
