Ingredients
  • 1 tbs oilive oil
  • ½ red onion, plus 2 tbs, finely diced
  • 2 cups grits
  • 3 cups veggie broth (or half broth/half water)
  • ¼ cup nutritional yeast
  • ½ tbs chili powder
  • ¼ cup diced tomato
  • ¾ cup black beans
  • Optional: ¼ cup vegan cheddar cheeze shreds
Instructions
  1. Add 1 tbs olive oil in medium sauce pan on medium heat
  2. Once oil is heated, add your red onion and saute until sodtens a bit, about 3 or 4 minutes.
  3. Next, add grits, broth, and chili powder and stir until combined.
  4. Allow grits to soak up the liquid for up to 10 minutes, stirring every few minutes. Next add nutritional yeast and a few tablespoons water to thin out if needed.
  5. Once grits have softened and absorbed all the liquid, taste and add a bit of salt per your taste. I added about ½ tbs.
  6. Once grits are complete, add them to a bowl and top with optional cheese, black beans, tomatoes, and remaining red onion. Dig in!
  7. **This recipe makes about 4 servings of grits but the topping are only for 2 servings**
