For a spicier kick, add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the grits mixture. Feel free to substitute the cheddar cheese with your favorite cheese, such as Gruyere or Monterey Jack. If you don't have half-and-half, you can use a combination of milk and cream. This casserole can be assembled the night before and baked in the morning for an easy brunch option.
