Cook, stirring, over moderate heat until mixture thickens.

Step 3

Take off the heat and stir in chopped or shredded cheeses with the butter until it all melts and incorporates.

I had relatives come for the weekend and wanted to make something not so typical for breakfast. These were great along with fried ham and skillet apples. I have to say they are the best grits I have had and enjoyed them very much as did my family!

I like these a lot better than standard grits. The cheese and garlic gave them an awesome flavor and texture. We had it with some thick sliced peppered bacon for a great tasting breakfast.
