    This was a keeper!
    So good and easy to prepare.
    I am a Northerner, and this was my 1st time making grits.
    I had some in my pantry like forever and saw some on Food Network and they looked so easy.
    I found this recipe and the rest is history.
    used homemade chicken stock 4 cups and 2 cup water (w. 1 cup grits).
    I also used green pepper as that is what I had on hand.

    It all turned out rich and hearty. Spicy and flavorful.
    So easy too. I will post my photos to share.
    Thanks for posting and sharing.

    Chorizo Cheese Grits, We have some grits lovers in my house and this is a jazzed up way to serve them Yummy , This was a keeper! So good and easy to prepare I am a Northerner, and this was my 1st time making grits I had some in my pantry like forever and saw some on Food Network and they looked so easy I found this recipe and the rest is history used homemade chicken stock 4 cups and 2 cup water (w 1 cup grits) I also used green pepper as that is what I had on hand It all turned out rich and hearty Spicy and flavorful So easy too I will post my photos to share Thanks for posting and sharing , I’m pretty sure that by law in most southern states, grits must be served with butter, sugar & cream When Twissis chose this recipe as part of our cooking expedition, I gave her my famous squinty-eyed-head-cocked-sideways-I-remain-unconvinced-we’ll-get-arrested look, but hey, she’s the guest so I took the risk Assembly was a snap used quick cooking grits prepared in the microwave The chorizo I found wasn’t in a casing – just a roll like plain old breakfast sausage & she had precooked it to use part in another recipe so I was saved from the casing removal/frying experience Other than cooking the veggies, it was work free And, OK, I’ll admit it – I liked them Twissis was right again Thanks for posting!
