How to Make easy cheesy grits

This video will teach you how to make easy cheesy grits. They're great for snacking on all day long. Things you will need: 6 cups water 1-1/2 cups uncooked grits 1 stick butter 1 pound processed cheese (like Velveeta) cut into chunks 3 whole eggs, lightly beaten 1 small can chopped chili peppers 2 teaspoons salt or salt substitute (optional) Step 1 Preheat oven to 275 degrees. Step 2 Butter or spray with cooking spray a large (one and one half to two quarts) baking dish. Step 3 In a large saucepan or microwave safe bowl bring six cups of water to a boil. Step 4 Stir into the boiling water one and one half cups grits. Either long cooking or quick grits will work; NOT instant grits. Cook until thick and creamy, approximately five to seven minutes. Step 5 Add to the hot grits one stick of butter. For the most memorable flavor use real butter, but for a more health conscious meal use olive oil margarine, or a quality butter substitute. Step 6 Blend into the grits mixture one pound Velveeta or other processed cheese. Step 7 Add to the grits mixture three slightly beaten eggs. Step 8 Stir into the grits one small can chopped green chili peppers (or fresh chopped chilies with the seeds removed). Step 9 Pour grits mixture into greased two quart baking dish. Step 10 Bake one hour at 275 degrees. Step 11 Serve hot.
