MOMMA'S SHRIMP AND CHEESE GRITS
I have tried a number of shrimp and grits recipes, but have not found one I really like. So I decided to experiment a bit and created a simple but delicious recipe that will surely please the taste buds. In New Orleans we like our cayenne pepper, so use less if you don't like so much heat.

Steps:
- Bring water to a boil in a saucepan; stir grits and salt into the boiling water, cover, and reduce heat to low. Simmer grits until tender, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove from heat and keep warm.
- Melt 1/4 cup butter in a pan over medium heat; cook and stir garlic until softened, about 2 minutes. Stir in green onions, cooking until green onions are wilted, another 4 minutes.
- Mix shrimp into the garlic and green onions and cook until shrimp are firm and pink, about 5 minutes. Stir in lemon juice, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper.
- Just before serving, mix 1/4 cup butter into the cooked grits, followed by processed cheese. Mix thoroughly until creamy and cheese is melted. Season with salt and black pepper.
- Place grits in a bowl, top with the shrimp, and pour pan sauce over shrimp and grits to serve.

CHEESY GRITS AND SHRIMP
I know it sounds like a very bad recipe. That's what I thought too. Crazy thing is *it's really good!. I got it from my mom (who got it from a friend) and after months of bugging me to try it, I did. I was shocked that I liked it. My husband has given it to a few guys at work and all love it.

Steps:
- Prepare grits in broth and salt according to package.
- Reserve a 1/4 cup of both cheeses for topping and combine the rest.
- In large fry pan saute onion, garlic, and bell pepper in the butter.
- Add to grits (after grits are prepared).
- Combine Rotel, shrimp, 1/4 salt with grits.
- Pour into a 2-quart casserole; sprinkle with reserved cheese.
- Bake at 350°F for 30-45 minutes. Let stand for 5 minutes and then serve.
- NOTE: This is rather spicy and I don't handle "hot" to well, so I also tried it with diced tomatoes and not Rotel. It was okay, but to me better with the Rotel.

SHRIMP AND GRITS
I made up this recipe as I was cooking based on what ingredients I had on hand and my vision of shrimp and grits should be! It may seem like a lot of ingredients but most are standard household items and it well worth it! (Check the package of your grits for cooking time and just substitute milk for water.)

- When milk boils, add grits. Stir and reduce heat to low and cover.
- After 10 minutes stir in cheese, seasoning and pepper. Stir frequently and keep warm. If grits get too thick add more milk.
- For Sauce:.In a food processor, finely chop onion, garlic and bell pepper.
- Melt butter and add onion mixture and sausage. Cook until sausage is done.
- Add shrimp, cook until shrimp are pink, about 3 minutes.
- Remove shrimp. (Doesn't have to be exact, may get some sausage too) Just don't leave shrimp to overcook!
- Add milk, water, tomato paste, pepper, Cajun spices, and bullion. Bring to a boil and make sure bullion is dissolved.
- Stir in sherry and, parsley, Parmesan cheese.
- Sprinkle in flour while whisking sauce until a thickened. ( Not too thick though, the grits will absorb some).
- Add shrimp back in and stir until shrimp are warm.
