Creamy Corn Grits


Alright, this is the South afterall, right?  Gotta have grits.  Gotta love grits.  Gotta make grits.  Yum yum yum.  I've made all kinds of grits but this was a whole different recipe.  Using a can of creamed corn.  This recipe makes a batch (at least 8 servings), so I'll definitely cut it in half next time.  But will probably double the cheese.  Luv that cheese!

CREAMY CORN GRITS (serves 8+)

one 14.75 oz can creamed corn
2 1/2 cups water
2 Tbsp unsalted butter
1/2 tsp seasoned salt
1/4 tsp pepper
1 cup plain yellow corn meal
1/2 cup shredded sharp Cheddar cheese

Combine corn, water, butter, seasoned salt, and pepper in medium saucepan; bring to boil on high.

Add cornmeal, whisking constantly, until blended.  Reduce heat to low; cook 8-10 minutes, whisking often, or until thickened.

Stir in cheese until well blended.  Serve.
