Shrimp On Grits Toast Recipe
This is a new party favorite although I could make a meal out of these. Saw Paula Deen make this and I couldn't wait to get in the kitchen.

  • 3 (14-ounce) cans chicken broth
  • 1 1/3 cups quick-cooking grits
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan

I'm a northerner who recently fell in love with grits! Sounds so good that I think I'll try this dish on friends next weekend. Southern company's coming!
