A man after my own heart. The only excuse for eating cheese grits is fried catfish, then they are not only acceptable but obligatory.

You spoon the grits over the eggs and chop/stir them together. Add salt and pepper to taste. One uses the toast to hem in the grits and eggs so that they can be scooped up properly. As one eats the grits and eggs, one takes an occasional bite from the bacon. Human kind has been eating grits in this manner since the dawn of time.

Of course they were on nearly all of the breakfast menus around Tampa so I had to try them. I thought they looked like cream of wheat but tasted like wallpaper paste, I put sugar and milk on them to make them more palatable. Only recently have I developed somewhat of a taste for them but I only care for cheese grits preferably with jalapenos.

Other stores don’t even know what grits are. As for the Yogurt, it does two things: First it brings out the sharpness of the cheese. Second, it makes the grits creamy somewhat like butter does but at a fraction of the calories. As I get older and my metabolism slows, I have to be increasingly careful about my caloric intake. I sometimes believe I can gain wait on a 2000 calorie diet. By the way, yogurt can be a reasonable substitute for sour cream or crème fresh in most recipes. I can get away with low fat yogurt. It must be unflavored however. Vanilla will NOT work except in sweet recipes.

I am a missionary here up north trying to bring them some Southern culture. I will have you know that after 12 years at my church, many in the congregation had finally learned to say “Ya’ll.” Even better I educated them to the finer things in life like cheese grits. Jerry P.S. I am actually pretty famous for my cheese grits up here. I have developed a heart healthy version that is pretty decent. If anyone is interested, here it is: I c quick grits 4 cups water 2 heaping table spoons of minced garlic (jar OK) 1 teaspoon of habañera hot sauce (Texas Pete or LA hotsauce OK as substitute) 1 package (8 0z.) of Seriously Sharp (Cabot) cheese 1/3 cup of plain yogurt Bring water, garlic, and hot sauce to rapid boil. Add Yogurt and return to boil. Slowly add grits stirring constantly then reduce heat to very low. Cover stirring about every minute until grits are cooked. Slick and add cheese until melted.
