So you like Shrimp and Grits...

3/4 cup grits
3/4 pound large shrimp (peeled and deveined)
8 oz. smoked andouille sausage (sliced)
1/4 cup chopped green onions
2 tbsp. olive oil
1/2 cup chopped onion
1/2 cup chopped mixed bell peppers
1 tsp. minced garlic
2 plum tomatoes, chopped
1/4 tsp. salt (to taste)
1/4 tsp. pepper (to taste)
1 tsp. Old Bay seasoning (to taste)

Cook grits according to directions on the box. Stir in the green onions and set aside. Heat the oil in a large skillet and add sausage, onions, bell peppers and garlic. Saute for about 3-4 minutes. Mix in the shrimp, tomatoes, salt, pepper and Old Bay. Cover the pot for 5-6 minutes until the shrimp are pink and opaque. Pour the grits onto serving plates and spoon the shrimp mixture over the grits. Immediately serve up this tasty breakfast, lunch or dinner!!

*Johnna's tip: Season the grits a bit, to taste with salt, pepper and maybe even a little garlic, at the beginning before they are mixed with the green onions. This will make the grits just as flavorful when combined with the shrimp mixture.
