My Secret Cheese Grits
Ingredients
- 5 cups water
- 1 ½ teaspoons salt
- 1 cup quick cooking grits
- 3 ounces cream cheese, cut into cubes
- ¾ cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 tablespoons butter
Instructions
- In a medium saucepan with a lid, bring the water to a boil and stir in the salt. Slowly add the grits, stirring constantly to prevent lumps. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer, stirring occasionally, for 15 to 20 minutes or until they reach the desired tenderness and consistency. Grits should be smooth and creamy, not chewy. Add more water if they begin to dry out.
- Just before serving, stir in the cream cheese, cheddar cheese, and butter. Stir until melted and combined. Serve immediately.
