Grits should be eaten with butter and pepper as a side dish to fried eggs, bacon, biscuits and cream gravy.  Grow up and eat a real breakfas!!!  Then go hoe the cotten.

NEVER EAT SUGAR ON GRITS --- don't listen to Kitkatz -- she is not a Texan   :waving;

Crawford - that chop recipe sounds good and I will try it  ;D

I have not seen Shark week advertised --- what if they don't honor shark week in Conroe    >:(

Chris - rotel - roach motel ---  :urcrazy; :urcrazy; :urcrazy;
acutally, some of my students told me to place jalpeno jucie in bowls and it will kill roaches
never tried it  - didn't want to waste the juice

Kimmie - do I need to send you some velvetta?
you got the mild rotel -- the hot would burn your tongue off -
let me know when you are ready for the real hot rotel
and be ready to burn

No sugar on grits!    Cheese, butter  -- no sugar!    And rotel is a yummy ingrediant to spice up any meat dish. And with velveeta---bring on the chips!   :2thumbsup;

Oh, Hanify, you must come to the South to get your grits. I will eat anything on grits, including maple syrup. My favorite, though is garlic cheese grits.

FYI, grits are made from dried hominy corn that is ground up. You cook them up in water to make a white mush. Then add whatever ingredients to make your yummies.

And yet I notice how much other stuff you are putting in grits to cover up it's flavor as much as possible, no plain grits?  :urcrazy; :rofl; :rofl; :rofl; :rofl;

I'll take Cream of Wheat, flavored Oatmeal, or CoCo Wheats any day over grits. Apple Cinamon Cream of Wheat  is the best  :2thumbsup;

If I ever go to Texas to go get Blue Bell Ice Cream, I'll have to stop over to try some homemade grits. Forgot what else I wanted to eat from Texas.


Was it the eggs over wasy cookies? Hmmm I'll have to look what I posted some time ago.
