Bacon Cheese Grits with Beans and Slaw

Ingredients

• ½ cups Water (I Usually Need More)
• ¼ cups Stone Ground Grits
• ¼ cups Grated Cheddar Cheese
• 1 slice Bacon, Cooked And Crumbled
• ½ cups Pinto Beans
• 2 Tablespoons Barbecue Sauce
• ¼ cups Shredded Cabbage
• 1 teaspoon Light Mayonnaise
• ½ teaspoons Apple Cider Vinegar
• 1 pinch Sugar
• Salt And Cracked Black Pepper

Preparation Instructions

1. Bring the water for the grits to a boil. Reduce heat to a simmer, then whisk in the grits. Let bubble and cook, stirring occasionally, for 10-12 minutes, adding water if the grits get too thick. Reduce heat to low and stir in the cheese and bacon. Keep warm.
2. While the grits cook, heat the beans and barbecue sauce together in a small pot over medium-low heat.
3. Mix the cabbage, mayo, apple cider vinegar, a pinch of sugar, and salt and pepper together in a small bowl. Set aside.
4. Assemble the bowl. Pour the grits into a serving dish and top with the beans and slaw.
