Cheese Grits Bowls with Smoked Sausage are full of grits, cheese, and smoked sausage and topped with a fried egg. Such a hearty and delicious way to start the day!

 
It’s a yummy bowl full of warm, savory ingredients. So much flavor in every bite!
I’ve seen grits bowls on the breakfast menu of lots of restaurants in recent years. They are so versatile and the ingredient combinations are virtually limitless.
The base for this southern breakfast bowl is super cheesy and creamy grits with cheddar cheese mixed in.

 
Tips for making Cheese Grits Bowls:
I love the flavor and creamy texture of stone ground grits but you could use old-fashioned grits or quick-cooking grits, both of which cook faster.
Any kind of smoked sausage can be used. I really like Andouille sausage and kielbasa for these grits bowls and I love the Beddar Cheddar sausage that Johnsonville makes. Bacon can be used instead of smoked sausage or you can use cooked crumbled breakfast sausage.
If you don’t like fried eggs, you can scramble them. I like to use fried eggs, sunny side up.
I love serving these grits bowls with a little hot sauce to spice them up.
