Shrimp and cheesy grits with bacon
Most of my stories will involve my sister and mom, both inspiring ambitious women who never backed down on business, kitchen and an argument.
I was not born in the South but the love of food, music and especially loved ones inspired me to cook this dish with memories of comfort food from my Memphis to Mississippi trip and home.
Grits were the 5-minute breakfast and you’re done with a dollop of butter or cheese growing up with my sister. An instant meal for a busy day, or just a feeling of comfort.
So many varieties, the list is endless it could be sweet or savory for veg or non veg lovers.
Please use your imagination and experiment, and I would love to see your pictures in the comments.
