5 Minute Grits + Garden Vegetable Cream Cheese Eggs


Grits and eggs is frequent breakfast in our house for our little one. Making flavorful, creamy grits can be time consuming so I came up with a quick way to make tasty grits in 5 minutes! 
The secret to my grits is mozzarella cheese instead of traditional yellow cheddar. It adds a creamy texture while keeping the cheesy taste we love about cheese grits.


5 Minute Cheese Grits
Serving 1

Ingredients
¼ Cup Quick Cooking Grits
1 Cup Water
2 TBSP Shredded Mozzarella 
1 TBSP Butter
Salt + Pepper, to taste

Combine grits and water in a 4 cup microwave safe bowl. I used my pyrex measuring cup. Microwave for 5 minutes, stirring half way through. Keep and eye on your grits as they can boil over!
Add mozzarella, butter, and salt and pepper to your grits.





Garden Vegetable Cream Cheese Eggs
Serving 1

1 egg
1 tsp garden vegetable cream cheese
Salt + Pepper, to taste

Scramble one egg over medium heat. Just as the egg is beginning to set add cream cheese and fold into the eggs. Season to taste with salt and pepper. 
I like to top the grits with these eggs!
