Instant Grits

Instant grits are a popular Southern breakfast food made from ground corn that has been treated with an alkali to make it easier to digest. Typically made by adding boiling water and a small amount of fat, such as butter, to quick-cooking cornmeal, instant grits are a convenient and filling breakfast option. However, they are usually heavily refined and lack some of the nutritional benefits of their less-processed counterparts. Instant grits are typically low in protein and fiber, but can be a good source of iron and other essential minerals when eaten as part of a balanced diet.
