heavy cream

🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt

💰Cheaper: milk + cornstarch

Greek yogurt reduces calories while maintaining creaminess

Use a small saucepan or larger pot depending on the quantity of grits being cooked.

Gather a whisk that won't scratch the non-stick pot and a tight-fitting lid.

Prepare a heat source to control the simmering of the grits.

Measure out 2.5 cups of water and 2.5 cups of heavy cream as the cooking liquid.

Pour the mixture of water and cream into the pot and bring it to a boil.

Once boiling, reduce the heat to a simmer.

Gradually whisk in the grits to avoid clumping, stirring continuously.

Add salt to taste and a generous amount of butter to the mixture.

Incorporate a spoonful of roasted chicken base for added flavor.

Cover the pot with a lid and let the grits cook, stirring every few minutes to prevent sticking.

Cook the grits until they reach a creamy consistency, which may take longer than the package instructions suggest.
