Grits

Grits are a staple food in the Southern United States, traditionally made from ground, dried corn. They are often served as a breakfast dish, but can also be eaten as a side dish or used as a base for a main course. Grits are high in carbohydrates and low in fat, making them a good source of energy. They are also a decent source of fiber, vitamins, and minerals, including iron, calcium, and potassium. However, grits can be high in sodium and may be served with added butter and cheese, which can increase their calorie and fat content. Overall, grits can be a healthy addition to a balanced diet when consumed in moderation and with healthy accompaniments.
