Preparation
Step 1
Brown sausage in a large skillet, stirring until it crumbles. Drain well, and set aside.
Bring water and chicken broth to a boil in a large saucepan; stir in salt and grits then return to a boil. Cover pan, reduce heat to medium and simmer 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat; add cheese, milk, butter, garlic, paprika and cayenne pepper; stirring until cheese melts. Stir in sausage and eggs. Spoon mixture into a lightly greased 13x9 baking dish.
Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 45-55 minutes or until golden and bubbly and a knife inserted in the middle comes out clean. Let stand 15 minutes before serving.
Make-Ahead Directions: Prepare casserole mixture as directed above but do not bake. Cover and refrigerate overnight. Remove from refrigerator; let stand, covered 30 minutes. Uncover and bake as directed
