For Milehigh

Paul and I have this some weekends for lunch, it's fabulous. :)

Chile-Garlic Grits
2-3+ cloves garlic, minced
2/3 c grits (this is really 2 scoops of grits from the white spoon I keep next to the stove)
2-3 T smoked paprika (you want enough to make the grits orange-ish)
1-2 T nutritional yeast

Saute garlic in olive oil or butter for 30 seconds or so. Add the grits and some water - I usually keep a kettle of nearly boiling water going while I cook grits so that I can add more if they need to cook a little longer. Boil until cooked to the consistency you like. Add paprika - any powdered chile you like is good here - and yeast.
