It's a cool, comfort food craving breakfast Saturday here in North Alabama. I have been very lax in grocery shopping this week. Which means I haven't been to the grocery store this week. No eggs, no bread, no breakfast meat. Hmmm. I searched through the pantry and uncovered some quick grits. And then I remembered there's some Gruyere cheese in the refrigerator. 10 minutes later, breakfast is served.
2 2/3 cup water
1/4 t. sea salt
2 T. butter
2/3 cup quick cooking grits
2/3 cup finely grated Gruyere cheese, plus more for garnishing
Bring water, salt and butter to a boil in a medium saucepan. Add grits and stir well. Cover and lower heat and let cook for 5 minutes. Remove from heat and add cheese. Stir to mix in the cheese.
Divide into serving bowls and add a little extra butter, some pepper if you'd like, and a little extra cheese on top.
Makes 2 servings.
