Preparation

Step 1

Back to the fries - I made a half recipe of the grits and it was more than plenty for the two of us (I listed the whole recipe below). I served them with our favorite chicken fingers. We loved them! I wished I had made a whole batch so I could have eaten them for dinner too. I can't wait to make these again!

Cook the grits according to the package directions. Stir in the cheese, garlic and salt just before removing from heat. Carefully pour the hot grits into a large, shallow plastic container. Allow the grits to cool down to room temperature. Cover, then chill overnight.

When ready, overturn the grits onto a large cutting board and cut into 1/2″ wide pieces. Lay them on a parchment paper or foil covered baking sheet and spay with cooking spray. Bake in a preheated oven at 425 degrees for 20-30 minutes or until browned. Flip them once midway through cooking time to brown both sides.

You're right, those breakfast places don't know how to make grits.
