Yield 4 Servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

3 strips center-cut bacon
4 cups water
1 cup quick-cooking grits
2 oz low-fat cream cheese
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 cup thinly sliced scallions

Steps:

  • Cook bacon in a medium saucepan; remove and pour off fat, leaving just a thin film on bottom. Carefully add water to pot and bring to boil. Slowly stir in grits, reduce heat to medium-low, cover and simmer, stirring occasionally, until thick, about 5-7 min. While grits cook, crumble bacon and cut cream cheese into bits. Stir in cream cheese until smooth; add salt, bacon and scallions.
