My Secret Cheese Grits
Author Stacey Little
Course Breakfast, Side Dish
Prep Time 5 minutes minutes
Cook Time 20 minutes minutes
Total Time 25 minutes minutes
Ingredients
- 5 cups water
- 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
- 1 cup quick cooking grits
- 3 ounces cream cheese, cut into cubes
- 3/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 tablespoons butter
Instructions
In a medium saucepan with a lid, bring the water to a boil and stir in the salt. Slowly add the grits, stirring constantly to prevent lumps. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer, stirring occasionally, for 15 to 20 minutes or until they reach the desired tenderness and consistency. Grits should be smooth and creamy, not chewy. Add more water if they begin to dry out.
Just before serving, stir in the cream cheese, cheddar cheese, and butter. Stir until melted and combined. Serve immediately.

My daughter’s boyfriend actually said this was one of the top 10 things he’s eaten at our house. He practically lives here and I make a new recipe at least twice a week. So this is high praise indeed! I changed the cheese to a Swiss and Gruyere mix because my mom always used Swiss. I’m not sure I’ve ever used cheddar in a quiche before…but maybe next time I will. (Or white cheddar sounds good now that I think about it.) ☺️Reply
Stacey
That’s great! I’m so glad everyone enjoyed it. There’s tons of possible combinations, too!

I’ve just discovered you…in the sense that I didn’t know you cooked or even existed otherwise, but I’m old and slow so please forgive me for that.
I am a quiche lover and want to try your recipe but I rarely have heavy cream or even whipping cream in my fridge so I’m going to branch out and try that staple all Southern kitchens should have….buttermilk. What have I got to lose? It will be tangy and buttery and, hopefully, creamy enough. Wish me luck!

I’ve never tried that, but I’m anxious to hear how it turns out. Please come back and let me know!

Delish and always a favorite. But you forget to tell us to add the crumbled bacon to shrimp.Reply
Stacey
Thanks for the heads-up, Chris! Glad you enjoyed it!

I just discovered your blog and I am tickled pink by all the lovely Southern recipes. I remember my Mawmaw making a lot of the things that I have found here and those lovely memories are so precious. Living in NW Georgia, we purchase stone ground grits from Nora Mills right outside of Helen. Since finding them, I haven’t bought a single package of “quick” grits and probably never will again. Thank you for all the yummy recipes! God Bless!

I know I’m a little late to the game, but I just discovered your blog and I love it! I have been looking for a good Shrimp and Grits recipe and I hope to try yours, but I notice in the picture there are mushrooms, but you don’t list them in the recipe? Would it compromise the recipe if I add them? I like mushrooms and think they might add a nice touch to the recipe. Any guidence?
thank youReply
Stacey
Yes, you can certainly add the mushrooms with the green onions!

Have you tried white stone ground grits? I’m sure you have; but I rarely use store bought grits since I have found stone ground. We use Oakview Farms when we can and that should be close by to you:) I love reading your blog and all the “regular” down home cooking recipes!

Stacey
HI Miriam! Oh yes, I’m quite familiar with Oakview’s grits – in fact, I think I have some in the pantry now. I love them, but I also love the convenience of the quick cooking variety on a busy weekday morning.

Saw you on TODAY show Sunday. So great to see a fellow River Region 🙂 Resident (Wetumpka) on TV. I knew you were the real deal when you cooked quick grits twice as long as the package says. I added cream cheese to my cheese grits this week and the were delicious. So glad to have found your blog.
