Directions:
Stir grits into boiling water. Reduce heat and stir in salt. Cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until grits are done, 5-10 minutes. Remove from heat and add butter and Velveeta cheese; stir until melted.

Beat eggs and then add milk (I add a little black pepper). Add a small amount of the hot grits, stirring well. Stir milk and egg mixture into remaining grits, stirring constantly until well blended. Stir in ham, bacon or sausage. Spoon mixture into greased 9x13’ baking dish. Sprinkle with shredded cheese. Bake at 375° for 45 minutes.
