Ingredients
2 cups water
1 cup milk
1 cup quick grits
2 tablespoons butter
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
Salt to taste
Black pepper to taste
4 eggs
4 slices toasted bread
Grits and Eggs: Directions
Put the water and milk in a saucepan and bring to a gentle boil.
Slowly whisk in the grits, then turn heat to low and cook until thick and creamy, stirring often.
Stir in the butter, shredded cheddar, salt, and black pepper until smooth.
In a skillet, cook the eggs until the whites are set and the yolks are still soft; season with a little black pepper.
Spoon the creamy grits onto plates and place one cooked egg on top of each serving.
Serve each plate with a slice of toasted bread on the side.
