CORN GRITS CORNBREAD

This cornbread has a really nice texture. I started making it this way when I got some hand-me-down coarse-ground cornmeal. I think it was Bob's Red Mill brand and my grocery store had it once, but then I couldn't find it for a while. Now they carry Bob's Red Mill "Corn Grits or Polenta". I think it's the same thing.

GRITS BREAD

This is so easy and so good. This can be made early in the day and refrigerated until ready to bake. It is an alternative to spoon bread. I have been making this since 1955. My children did not like spoon bread and when I made this they loved it. It has replaced spoon bread for us.
