Baked Garlic Cheese Grits with Sausage
Megan Wood
We southerners love our grits, and we seem to be pretty fond of a grits casserole too, especially when you pair that up with some spicy breakfast sausage. Add in some fried or scrambled eggs and you’ve got a very nice eye-opener for those holiday guests. I know the pictures don’t do the dish justice - I don’t care how hard you try, there is just no way to make a pretty picture of a serving of a grits casserole.
