For a richer flavor, use milk or broth instead of water. Feel free to experiment with different cheeses, such as Gruyere, pepper jack, or a blend of your favorites. Add cooked bacon, sausage, or ham for a heartier dish. A dash of smoked paprika can add a smoky depth to the flavor. These grits are great served alongside eggs, bacon, or sausage for a complete breakfast or brunch.
