Grits Casserole

I made Grits Casserole today for a brunch with friends. It was good and my bf’s husband even had seconds. It turns out sort of like a quiche. Not really a lot of grits in it. But tasty nonetheless!

Grits Casserole

⅓ cup quick grits
½ cup water
½ tsp salt
12 oz ff evaporated milk
1 cup diced lean ham
1/2 cup reduced fat shredded cheddar cheese
3 eggs beaten
1 tsp dry mustard
1 tsp dried parsley
2 - 3 dashes hot sauce

Boil water and salt and add grits. Remove from heat and let stand 10 minutes. (This is very thick!)
Mix in other ingredients and pour into a deep pie plate coated with PAM.
Cook for 350 for 40 - 45 minutes. Test with a knife to be sure center is done. Let stand 10 minutes before serving.
