A Weekend Casserole.

Have I told you this week how much I love Pinterest.  It just takes you to the best blogs and recipe's ever!  And then if you go back into that blogger's history----you find even more recipe's!!  Just awesome.
I have had several friends say Shrimp and Grits are to die for.  So when I came across what looks to be a simple recipe, I though why not.  I found this over at The Kitchen is My Playground..  I think I may try it on my next weekend off...

                                                          Shrimp and Grits Casserole

Ingredients:

2 c milk (whole or skim)
3/4 cup chicken broth
1 cup quick cooking grits
1/4 tsp. salt
1/2 c shredded Parmesan cheese
2 T butter
4 oz. cream cheese
1 or 2 T chopped fresh chives
3 T fresh parsley or 1 T dried parsley
1 T. lemon juice
1 egg
1 lb. peeled shrimp roughly chopped

Directions:

Bring milk and chicken broth to a boil in a medium saucepan over medium high heat.  Gradually add grits and salt to pan, stirring constantly with a whisk.  Cook 5 minutes or until thick, stirring constantly.  Remove grits from heat.  Stir in Parmesan, butter, and cream cheese until melted; then stir in remaining indredients.

Spoon grits mixture into a 11x7 baking dish generously coated with cooking spray.  Bake at 375 degrees for 25 minutes or until set and the top is just starting to get some golden brown areas.
