What is it about breakfast that makes everyone get excited? I'm not talking about a bowl of cereal!

I'm talking about a hearty breakfast that keeps you full for hours!

Last week I shared my recipe for a breakfast casserole that we have EVERY Christmas morning. I mentioned that we also have cheese grits with it as well. I promised to share the recipe before Christmas. Both of these are so simple and can be made the evening before. We make it a family event with everyone pitching in to get it done quickly! All you do is bake in the morning and serve with fruit. Easy peasy so you can enjoy the morning stress-free and essentially out of the kitchen.

This is so yummy! We've been making it for many years. I can't believe that I haven't lost the tattered recipe. Last year we took a chance and made it the night before. It's like a soufflé. It's a bit soupy when you make it, but it rises with the eggs and thickens. 

If you make it the night before, let it sit on the counter for about 10 minutes before placing it in the oven.

It will rise and become slightly crusted over and brown. It's done when not soupy in the center and has a bit of spring to the touch.

Ingredients
  1. 1 cup of quick cook grits
  2. 3 cups of boiling water
  3. 1 stick of salted butter
  4. salt and pepper to taste
  5. 4 eggs
  6. 1 cup of milk
  7. 1/2 of an 8 ounce block of sharp cheddar cheese grated (a generous heaping cup)
Also on OSH!  Adult Slushie
Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
  2. Put the grits in the boiling water.
  3. Cook over medium heat until thickened. I use a whisk and constantly move to avoid any lumps.
  4. Remove from heat and add stick of butter. Stir to melt with whisk.
  5. Add salt and pepper.
  6. Stir eggs into milk and add to the grits.
  7. Add the cheese and mix well with a spoon.
  8. Pour into a greased 3 quart, deep casserole.
  9. Bake uncovered about 45-60 minutes.
Notes
  1. Grits tend to need a fair amount of salt. I probably add 1/2 a teaspoon. If you make the night before, let it sit on the counter about 10 minutes before baking. If I make it the night before, it tends to take longer to bake. It's closer to the 1 hour mark or a little more depending on oven. Start checking at 45 minutes. It will be brown on the top and set. I tend to rotate mine at that 45 minute mark.

Thanks so much for all the comments and suggestion Thanks so much for all the comments and suggestions about my back yesterday. I did absolutely nothing and rested it. I slept better last night, and it's much better today. Last year on this very day, I posted our winter mantel. I loved this look. We enjoyed it so much throughout January. Keep on using your fresh greenery and twinkle lights if it makes you happy! Going through old ideas has me inspired to spruce up our mantel. Sadly, I haven't really done anything to it since Christmas. I went straight from putting up Christmas to painting the mudroom! Have a cozy evening! Visit the blog with the link in bio @oursouthernhome Just type in WINTER MANTEL in the search bar.

This New thrift store makeover post almost didn’ This New thrift store makeover post almost didn’t happen! It’s the first one of the new year! I was 1/2 way through the project while simultaneously painting the mud room cabinets. Down on the floor painting lower cabinets and twisted a certain way which did something to my lower back/hip. Ugh!!!! I got it done with the help of @ashlyn_little ⭐️ I couldn’t sleep and currently on heating pad. I’m going to be useless today! Any remedy ideas? I’ve got to get back to painting! I can’t take things in disarray. Lol! I’ll be working on the laptop in bed today I guess and checking out the other projects from my blogging friends! Link in bio and stories to the blog post!

Happy New Year & Wednesday friends! @bentleywestie Happy New Year & Wednesday friends! @bentleywestie  here! My grandma has taken a little break from social media and the blog to enjoy time with us before Woods and Ashlyn started classes back at Clemson. Personally...I’m ready to see her get out of sweats and put some makeup on! She did finally get all the Christmas packed away. With the tree gone, I’ve got my other bed back in the den! I think she’s coming off a sugar high. She mentioned that all the Hershey kisses were gone. Oh, well! Things are getting back to normal around here! Maybe they’ll get me a haircut!

I’ve been wanting a pair of sequin pants FOREVER I’ve been wanting a pair of sequin pants FOREVER! I wore them for the first time out Saturday night for our anniversary dinner! @lovechicos Now I want to wear them all the time! They are so comfy, stretchy, lightweight and just freaking fabulous! ❤️ Paired them with a sweater from @amazonfashion so it toned the look down a bit. I felt dressy casual. I’m also going to be wearing them with a white sweatshirt and tennis shoes! Life is too short.....So wear the sequins! Follow me on the LIKEtoKNOW.it shopping app to get the product details for this look and others http://liketk.it/34KjY #liketkit @liketoknow.it #LTKNewYear #StayHomeWithLTK

You’ll find me here all day in pajamas. That’s You’ll find me here all day in pajamas. That’s right! I’m not doing a darn thing today. I always lounge the day after Christmas to recoup after days of cooking. After Christmas is when I can finally relax a bit and enjoy the beauty of the season. I finally watched Little Women this morning and loved. Now I’m watching season 2 of Virgin River. How are you spending your Saturday? I’ll be getting dressed later this evening for our anniversary dinner. #31years tomorrow! 🥂

Today is the BIG 52! Gulp! It’s been a cozy Chri Today is the BIG 52! Gulp! It’s been a cozy Christmas Eve Birthday with my family. I’ll admit, it’s been a busy day of chores, but it’s been extra special because the kids are both home with us. Hunkering in for the evening. Here’s a tip when you’re wanting to feel put together at home. @spanx faux leather leggings work dressed up or down! Add a pair of @isotoner.us ballet slippers and you can fake a ballet flat at home! Over the knee boots and scarf are Amazon finds. I’ll be linking the look in the #liketoknowit app soon. Merry Christmas Eve!

I’m sharing my favorite carol on the blog along with our nativity and angels through the years going all the way back to 2012! Did you catch the Christmas Star last night? ⭐️ We missed it, but I think you can see it again tonight.
