This past weekend was our Supper Club. They decided to do breakfast for dinner, which we were thrilled about. Unfortunately, we got tied up and weren't able to make it on time. I had already prepared everything, so all I had to do was bake it off. Since we couldn't take it on Saturday night, we decided to have it for brunch after church yesterday. It is very good...it came from a small town Presbyterian cookbook. I've had my eye on it since January. Because it has sausage in it (which can be a pretty strong taste), the grits don't stand out as much as they do in the Grits Casserole. If you are looking for something different, give this a try.
Grits and Sausage Bake
3 c. water
3/4 c. quick grits
2 c. shredded cheddar cheese
⅔ c. (5 oz.) can evaporated milk
1/4 tsp. garlic powder
1/4 tsp. black pepper
1/8 tsp. hot pepper sauce (optional)
1 lb. sausage, cooked and drained
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
Preheat oven to 350. Grease an 8 inch square baking dish. Bring water to a boil in large saucepan; slowly stir in grits. Cover. Reduce heat to low. Cook, stirring occasionally for 5 to 6 minutes. Remove from heat. Add 1-1/2 c. cheese, milk, garlic powder, pepper and hot sauce to grit. Stir until cheese melts. Add sausage and eggs; stir well. Pour into prepared baking dish. Bake for 1 hour. Top with remaining cheese and bake an additional 5 minutes to melt cheese. Let cool for 10 minutes before serving. Batter can be made the day before, cover and refrigerate. Let stand at room temperature 30 minutes before baking. Makes 6 servings.
