Cheesy Grits & Ritz Crackers Recipe

During the first month that I lived in Georgia, I was invited to a playdate and was given a welcome letter along with suggestions on what to bring for a snack. One snack suggestion on the list was grits and I was completely clueless as to what those were. I have had countless conversations with local people since that day, explaining to me all of the was to enjoy grits. It didn’t take long for me to realize that it was something people from Georgia enjoyed with just about ever single meal. So began my journey to embrace this mysterious food and try out a few recipes of my own. I decided that going simple the first few tries would be best and I ended up discovering this delicious cheese grits recipe that pairs perfectly with Ritz crackers.

What a simple and delicious recipe this turned out to be, I was pleasantly surprised a how yummy it came out! Even more surprising to me was how simple it was to pull off this recipe and all of the ways you could mix it up by adding different types of cheeses. Imagine how great this would look on the table as an appetizer during thanksgiving.
