Here's a little twist to traditional Southern grits...add a little spiciness. See note below for tips on varying the degree of spiciness you want.

Ingredients
* 4 cups instant grits
* 2 tablespoons soy sauce
* 1/3 cup sour cream
* 1 clove garlic, minced
* 1 egg
* 1/2 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
* 1/3 cup jalapeno peppers, minced (see note below)

Directions
1. Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees
2. Cook grits according to package instructions
3. Combine cooked grits and all remaining ingredients in a bowl. Mix well.
4. Pour into a casserole dish and bake for 20 minutes.
Makes four servings.

Note: You may substitute a small can (4 oz.) green chilis for the jalapeno peppers. Canned chilis come in mild, medium and hot. Use the appropriate can for the degree of heat you want in your final dish. You can also substitute fresh Anaheim peppers for a milder flavor.
