Steps to make Sautéed Veggies and Creamy, Cheesy Grits:
- Chop all veggies as directed or as desired. Sauté veggies in butter and possibly a little oil (I prefer grape seed oil) over medium-high heat for about 25 minutes or until desired tenderness.
- After veggies have cooked for about 15-20 minutes, boil lightly salted water in a separate pot along with chia seeds and feta cheese for about 6 minutes. After those 6 minutes, add and cook grits according to package directions whisking grits from start to finish occasionally. Garlic powder and paprika are excellent options for seasoning.
- After grits are almost done, turn fire to low heat and add milk, cream cheese, sour cream, shredded cheese and butter. Stir and let grits ingredients heat for about another 3-5 minutes. Then, turn off fire and let grits set for about 5-10 minutes.
- Serve hot, sautéed veggies over hot grits. Enjoy!
- Suggestions: Another good addition to your sautéed veggies is mushrooms. Chia seeds can be purchased at Puritan.com. Check it out. Tomatillos, Thai eggplant, and Chinese eggplant may be difficult to find in some cities. Try a fruit market that has a lot of varieties of fruits and vegetables. In Chicago, we have Pete's Fresh Market.
A salad or simple green vegetable is all you need to complete this easy, company-worthy meal. However, given the rich, creamy, cheesy, and salty flavor profile of the grits, you can create greater contrast by pairing items that are not also rich (i.e. not greasy) and use other tastebuds than the salty/savory ones. I found that collard greens, very lightly steamed and dressed with vinegar, are phenomenal with these cheese grits. Shrimp and grits are a classic Southern pairing. In this recipe, we're making the dish deliciously seasonal by finishing the paprika-spiced shrimp in a sauté of summer vegetables, which reduces to create a tasty sauce.
