Oklahoma Cheese Grits image

It's a great day when my mom serves up this Southern specialty! Cooked grits are combined with seasonings, cheese, and eggs, then baked. The eggs are the secret to light fluffy grits that melt in your mouth! You may adjust or eliminate the hot sauce to suit your taste.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover cheese. I had some cheddar and mozzarella cheese that I needed to use up, and this recipe was the perfect solution. The grits were delicious and the cheese sauce was perfect.

This recipe is a great base for cheese grits. I added some diced tomatoes, onions, and bell peppers to the cheese sauce to make it more flavorful. It was a hit with my family.

The grits were a little bland, but the cheese sauce was delicious. I added some salt and pepper to the grits and it was much better.

A bit too cheesy for my taste, but still a good recipe. I'll try it again with less cheese next time.
