We topped each serving with a poached or sunny-side up egg for a Southern breakfast you’re going to love.

Ingredients

Olive oil cooking spray

5 spray(s)

Water

6 cup(s)

Uncooked corn grits

1½ cup(s)

Kosher salt

1 tsp(s)

Kale

6 oz, baby variety, firmly packed (about 4 c)

Black pepper

⅛ tsp(s), or to taste

Grape tomatoes

1 cup(s), halveed

Real bacon bits

6 tbsp(s), for garnish

Raw egg

6 large, cooked sunny-side up

Instructions

  1. Coat inside of a 6-quart slow cooker with cooking spray.
  2. Add water; whisk in grits and salt to combine (make sure there are no lumps in grits). Cover slow cooker; cook on low until grits are tender and creamy, 8 hours.
