Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients. Fresh corn kernels, bell peppers, and onions will give your grits the best flavor. If you can't find fresh corn, you can use frozen corn kernels, but be sure to thaw them before using.
  • Don't overcook the grits. Grits should be cooked until they are tender but still have a slight bite to them. Overcooked grits will be mushy and bland.
  • Season the grits well. Salt, pepper, and garlic powder are all good basic seasonings for grits. You can also add other spices, such as chili powder, cumin, or paprika, to taste.
  • Use a variety of toppings. Grits are a versatile dish that can be topped with a variety of ingredients. Some popular toppings include cheese, bacon, sausage, eggs, and avocado.
  • Make grits ahead of time. Grits can be made ahead of time and reheated when you're ready to serve them. This makes them a great option for busy weeknights.
