PAULA DEEN'S TOMATO GRITS

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• In a saucepan, bring the water and milk to a boil. Add the salt and slowly add the grits and return to a boil, stirring constantly for 1 minute. Reduce the heat, cover, and cook for 3 minutes. While stirring the grits add the 1/2 cup of butter and stir until butter is melted. Cover and cook for 3 to 5 minutes, or until the grits are thick and creamy. Remove from heat and set aside.
• Using a skillet, sauté the onions in the remaining tablespoon of butter for 1 minute. Add the processed cheese, garlic powder, 1 1/2 cups Cheddar, and onions to grits, and stir until the cheese is melted. Add the tomatoes and mix well. Pour the grits into a greased 8 by 11 by 2-inch casserole and bake for 40 minutes.
• Sprinkle remaining 1 cup cheese over the casserole for the last 5 minutes of cooking time.

Remove from heat.Stir in Rotel, chilies, grated cheese, and cream cheese. Stir in spices and check for seasonings. Add salt if needed. Beat egg in a small bowl or cup. Drizzle in a couple tablespoons of the hot grits to temper the eggs, stirring constantly. Then dump it all back into the pot and stir. Pour into a buttered baking dish and bake for 30 to 45 minutes, or until hot and bubbly and golden on top. Important: Allow pan to sit for fifteen minutes before serving! Grits will firm up slightly as they sit. Stir a bit in the pan if needed.

CHEESY GRITS AND SHRIMP

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.
