rec.food.recipes/Chesley Sanders

3/4 cup old fashioned grits (not quick cook)
3 1/2 cup water
1/2 tsp salt
2 eggs
1 1/4 cup cheddar cheese grated
2-4 cloves garlic crushed chopped fine
2 tbsp butter
pinch cayenne pepper

Heat oven to 350F. Butter a 1 1/2 qt. casserole. Bring water and salt to boil. Slowly stir in grits. Stir often until all water is absorbed and grits are soft, about 10-15 min. Beat eggs and temper with small amount of grits. Return to pan with grits along with remainder of ingredients, stir well on low heat until cheese melts and mixes in. Pour into casserole and bake until top just begins to brown, 35-40 min.
