Baked Two-Cheese & Bacon Grits Recipe
"In the South, everyone loves three things; bacon, cheese, and grits! After playing around with this recipe, I took it to my first family party as a newlywed and it was a huge hit. So, I took it to our church party and it was a huge hit again! Finally, I took it to my husband's office party, and everyone was raving over it. Now I'm known as the "yummy food wife," which makes my husband proud. This recipe has become a family tradition that will hopefully be passed down for generations.—Melissa Rogers, Tuscaloosa, Alabama..."
