Old Bay Cheddar Grits
"These grits are seriously creamy and flavorful from the full cup of freshly grated white cheddar cheese and Old Bay seasoning. The grits are a delicious base for a homemade ragout-like mixture of spicy Andouille sausage, yellow bell pepper, blistered grape tomatoes, and a bit of melted butter to smooth things out. Comfort food at its best!"

Add butter and cook, stirring constantly, until melted. Cover to keep warm.
