  3. Add the grits in a slow stream, whisking.

  5. Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the cheese; cover to keep warm.
  6. Meanwhile, in a large nonstick frying pan, melt the remaining T of butter over moderate heat.
  7. Add the bell peppers and scallions and cook, stirring frequently, until the vegetables start to soften, about 5 minutes.
  8. Add the beans, broth, 1/4 t cayenne, and the remaining 1/4 t salt.
  9. Bring to a simmer and cook, stirring frquently, until the beans are hot, about 5 minutes.
  10. Remove from heat and stir in the tomatoes.
  11. Serve over the cheese grits.
  12. Have a salad of greens, hot rustic bread just from the oven and a great wine.*.
  13. Enjoy!
  14. *WINE: The robust and varied flavors in this dish want a big, spicy, and fruity red wine to match their intensity. Zinfandel see ms to have an affinity for black beans, and a sturdy example from the Napa Valley will suit these grits and beans well. .
