Southern cooking at its best. These are also terrific left over. Ingredients:
2 quarts water |
12 ounces quick-cooking grits |
1/2 cup butter |
2 jalapeno peppers, diced |
1 poblano pepper, diced |
1 medium onion, diced |
1/2 lb cheddar cheese, grated |
1/2 lb monterey jack cheese, grated |
4 eggs, slightly beaten |
salt, to taste |
Directions:
1. Bring water to boil. Add grits and simmer for five minutes. Set aside.
2. Melt butter in large skillet. Add peppers and onion. Saute until tender, about five minutes.
3. Add to grits along with cheeses. Stir to combine. Temper eggs if grits are still hot. Otherwise, add eggs and stir well.
4. Add salt to taste.
5. Pour into 2 quart casserole dish and refrigerate until ready to bake. Bake at 350 degrees for one to one and 1/2 hours or until set. I usually cook longer because we like them crispier around the edges.
