True Grits

Need a quick and hearty dinner in ten minutes?

Grab some smoked sausage, shrimp or left over ham (I use turkey sausage), quick cooking grits, shredded cheddar cheese, dried or fresh minced onion, onion powder, garlic powder, two bouillon cubes and some cajun seasoning.

Quickly slice the sausage thinly with kitchen shears into a saute pan. If you are using fresh onion, quickly dice up a handful and throw it in. Saute over medium-high heat 5-7 min.

Mix the grits in a covered saucepan per box instructions. Add boullion, salt, pepper, onion & garlic powders, and cajun seasoning to taste. Throw in a small handful of cheddar per four servings. Let it cook (about 5 min max.)

Add meat, scoop into bowls, top with more cheese.

The adaptability of the dish is as limitless as your creativity, left overs and taste.
