Directions
Shrimp and Grits Casserole, got this from a good friend of mine and need a safe place to find it! I’ve actually made this several times and I’ve come to the conclusion that I’m not a major fan of sundried tomatoes – so I’ve substituted green, yellow, red and orange peppers for the sundried and regular tomatoes; Andouille Sausage can be substituted for the bacon and the mushrooms can be left out if wanted One-half of this recipe is still a lot of food and I’ve used fresh shrimp as well as frozen I only use stone-ground grits and all the cream and butter as is called for – delish!, got this from a good friend of mine and need a safe place to find it!
