4 c. water
1 tsp. salt
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 c. uncooked regular grits
1 (12-oz.) block sharp Cheddar cheese, shredded
1/2 c. butter
1 tsp. seasoned pepper
1 tsp. Worcestershire sauce
1/4 tsp. hot sauce
3 large eggs, lightly beaten

Bring first 3 ingredients to a boil in a large saucepan; gradually stir in grits. Return to a boil; reduce heat, and simmer, stirring occasionally, 15 minutes or until thickened. Add Cheddar cheese and next 4 ingredients, stirring until cheese melts. Remove from heat; let stand 10 minutes. Stir in eggs, and pour into a lightly greased 11-inch by 7-inch baking dish or 2-quart casserole. Sprinkle with paprika.

Bake grits at 350°F for 1 hour or until set.
