Cheesy Grits Wedges
Fixed this for a brunch - it's easy and turned out really good! Can be fixed a day ahead. We, Amber and Ann Kelly made this and here is our take on it:
- Prep Time : 5 minutes
- Cook Time : 8 minutes
Ingredients
- Boiling Water - 3 cups
- Grits - 3/4 cup
- Salt - 1 1/2 teaspoon
- Shredded Sharp Cheddar Cheese - 1 cup
- Onion - 1/3, diced
- Butter - 1 TBS
- Mustard - 1/2 teaspoon
- Garlic Powder - 1 tsp
- Pepper
- Bacon Grease (optional) - 1 tsp, this helped a lot of flavor to grits.
Instructions
- In saucepan, we sauteed onions with butter and bacon grease until they are translucent. Add water, salt, garlic powder, mustard and a pinch of pepper to onions. and bring to a boil. Slowly stir grits and salt into boiling water. Reduce heat to medium-low, stirred until thickened. Add cheese and stir until cheese is melted and well blended.
- Pour into 9 to 10 inch pie plate (sprayed with non stick spray) Cover & chill until firm. These can be made the day before.
- Cut into slices, place on baking pan and broil until golden brown. This takes about 8 minutes.
- After we toasted ours we added a little shredded cheese and bacon.
