Build-your-own. The one you’ll actually make on a Tuesday.
Serves 1 · Total 10 min · Easy
Ingredients
- 1 bowl hot creamy grits
- 1 egg, fried soft or poached
- Greens or blistered tomatoes
- Bacon, sausage, or none at all
- A little extra cheese
- Hot sauce, to wake it up
Method
- Start with a hot bowl of creamy grits. Make a shallow well in the middle with the back of a spoon.
- Sauté your greens or tomatoes in a little fat while the grits stay warm.
- Land the egg in the well so the yolk runs into the grits when you cut it. That’s the whole magic.
- Pile on your protein, a shower of cheese, and as much hot sauce as your morning can handle.
The rule of the bowl: something creamy, something runny, something crisp, something spicy. Hit all four and you can’t miss.
