Preparation

Step 1

Bring water and salt to a boil, add grits and cook five minutes until thick. Remove from stove and add butter, eggs, garlic powder, ham, green onions, hot sauce and half the shredded cheese. Mix together and pour into sprayed casserole. Sprinkle rest of the cheese on top. (I use a 9 x 5 loaf pan). Bake in preheated 375 degree oven for 30 to 35 minutes uncovered.

Note: If I have any ham and grits leftover, I fry them the next morning. Make it into patties just like you would potato cakes (I use my hands). Dip in flour, then into beaten egg, in flour again and fry. Serve with your favorite topping such as syrup, powdered sugar or whatever you like.
