Ingredients
- 1 lb. Italian Sausage (ground and spicy/hot)
- 4 cups water
- 1 cup quick cooking grits
- 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
- 1 tsp. chicken bouillon
- 1/2 cup pepper jack cheese (shredded)
- 3 tbsp. butter (melted)
- 3 large eggs (beaten)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees and spray a 9x13 inch casserole dish with non-stick cooking spray.
- Cook the ground sausage in a large skillet over medium-high heat, stirring until the sausage is crumbly (about 15 minutes). Drain grease and place cooked sausage in a large mixing bowl.
- Bring the 4 cups of water to a boil in a medium sauce pan over medium-high heat. Stir in the grits, chicken bouillon, and heavy whipping cream. Reduce the heat to medium-low and cook until the grits are thick, about 15 minutes. Stir occasionally.
- In the sausage bowl, stir together the shredded cheese, melted butter, and beaten eggs. Fold in the cooked grits until well combined.
- Pour the grits and sausage into the greased casserole dish. Bake, uncovered, in the preheated oven for 30 to 40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean.
