Teach me, O, Southerners

How does one cook grits?

 

Yes, I am a grit virgin. (hangs head in shame)

 

Hey, I'm from Jersey, whadda want?

 

But I'm getting really bored with oatmeal and fruit for breakfast and

would like to try something different, and inspiration struck me while

watching My Cousin Vinnie.

 

I've Googled it, and came up with loads of recipes that say to take 6

cups of water and a cup of grits, then a pile of other really Southern

ingredients, like a quarter pound of butter and a cup of shredded sharp

cheddar cheese, then add cooked bacon, and so on.

 

I'm looking for a nice *healthy* version that can be made, preferably

just one or 2-servings, and a nice and fast microwave recipe would be

appreciated, too.

 

So, how do *you* make your grits?

 

Thanks, y'all.
