The grits mixture will almost fill the entire baking dish and will puff up when baking, but don't worry - it won't overflow. Also, switching sides, these grits can take the place of mashed potatoes anytime.

My mother made this recipe for Christmas every year and even people who HATE grits always came back for seconds! DELICIOUS!

Provided by Christina Sue

Categories     Toddler Friendly

Time 1h5m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

4 cups milk (Whole is best, 2% is fine.)
1 cup quick-cooking grits
3/4 cup butter (I recommend real butter.)
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
1 triangle Laughing Cow cheese (I sometimes use 1 C of shredded sharp cheddar instead.)
1/2 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Barely bring milk to a boil, add grits slowly stirring the whole time. Cook time for grits may vary so follow the time on the quick cooking grits box.
  • When grits are done, add 3/4 stick of butter, add cheese slowly and add the salt.
  • Pour into a 13x9 pan.
  • **VERY IMPORTANT** Let the grits cool, either sitting on the counter top or in the fridge.
  • Once cool, poke holes in the top of the grits (I use the tip of a spoon).
  • Melt the remaining butter and pour on top of the grits.
  • Top with the grated parmesan cheese.
  • Bake for 40 minutes at 400 degrees.
