Ingredients: 4 cups low sodium chicken broth salt and pepper 1 cup stone-ground grits 3 Tbs. butter 2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese 1 pound shrimp, peeled and deveined 6 slices of bacon, chopped 4 tsp. lemon juice 2 Tbs. chopped parsley 1 cup sliced scallions 1 large clove garlic, minced Directions: Bring chicken broth to a boil.
