1/2cupquick cooking gritsfound by the oatmeal in most stores
1clovegarlicgrated
1/4cupgrated cheddar cheese
1tablespoonchopped chives
4largeeggs
Salt and pepperto taste
Instructions
In a small saucepan over high heat, bring the water to a rolling boil.
Reduce heat to medium, stir in the grits and garlic, and cover. Continue cooking and stirring often for 5-7 minutes or until the grits have thickened.
Remove from the heat, stir in the cheddar and chives until combined. Add salt and pepper to your taste. Set aside.
While the grits are cooking, heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Spray with non-stick cooking spray or add a pat of butter to the pan.
Crack the eggs into the pan (depending on the size of your pan, you may need to cook the eggs in batches) and cook over medium low heat until the thick whites surrounding the yolk begin to turn opaque. Carefully flip the egg over and continue cooking until the yolk has cooked to your satisfaction.
Pour the grits into two shallow bowls. Top each bowl with two eggs and more salt and pepper.
