Pumpkin grits
I had some leftover sausages cooked with vegetables I often serve over polenta, but for a change I thought I would add pumpkin to grits to have with it. It was easy to make and so good, and I love the idea of adding an extra vegetable to my meal.
Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup of grits
- 1/2 cup water and 1/2 cup of milk
- a knob of butter
- 1/4 of a can of pumpkin puree or cooked fresh pumpkin
- a pinch of salt
Method:
- add the grits to a pan with the water and milk, bring to a boil
- turn to medium heat, add butter and pumpkin
- simmer and stir for 5 minutes until soft
- a little salt to taste and water if needed
- serve
- would also make a fun breakfast
In Nice at the moment landed today such a beautiful place, and enjoyed a home cooked meal on the balcony :-), the week in the UK was loads of fun went by like a flash seeing family and traveling from here to there, will add a blog post tomorrow I have wifi again :-)
