@LunarOrbit Cheesy shrimp and grits are da bomb! I use the polenta rather than the typical white grits. For breakfast, I like them with butter, cream and sugar. For dinner - always cheesy and hearty with shrimp or chicken - and a lot of spices! Yum,
@LadyBronte The cheesy shrimp does sound delish. (I’ll give you that one :) )
I’m not sure about the sweet one for breakfast. You know my tastebuds! 😉
Little story…I ate alot of polenta growing up. Always with stews and sauces for dinner. Maybe cheese too. A staple in Italian culture. One of my first girlfriends came for dinner one night. Bad enough she wasn’t Italian…but when she asked for syrup for the polenta, I thought my mom was going to have a heart attack. Even I raised my eyebrows at the request. Fortunately we didn’t have syrup at my moms house…and that gf didn’t last long after that nite anyways. 🤣
@LunarOrbit Laughs - yes. I doubt you would care for the sweet ones. Sounds like that's a good thing - you might be disowned! Haha! That's hilarious about your old gf.. I wonder did she know she was kicked to the curb over polenta? 😜. Although, if I were at your house, I would ask for maple syrup too - just to be ornery! And I know you'd have it! 😂
I didn't grow up eating polenta or grits. I discovered them in my 20s when I moved to the southern states. Loved them ever since.
