Cheese, pepper and Tabasco is the way to go!!

Although half the time I only use pepper and Tabasco. Put a tab of butter on the grits before you start eating breakfast, then by the time you're done, it's all nice and melted.

ever wonder why we love grits so much when we have to load them down with so many other things to eat them. butter and sugar for me........Denise

 

[BigDaddyRog]

Ive never tried to sweeten my grits.....Im a salt, pepper & butter guy....bacon bits sounds good though, simply because their just aint enough fat and cholesteral with the butter alone!!

It's a southern thing, when I lived down there, they were everywhere.... as a northerner, I just don't like tasteless formless food that can only be consumed with tobasco, cheese, onions garlic or what ever else you guys keep talking about. I didn't even know what a grit was until I moved to ga. TO me grit is the rating on sandpaper, not a breakfast entree. LOL

Anybody watch RV 2008 on HGTV this w/e? We DVR'd it & just finished it last night. (Started it Monday night, but got really tired & had to finish it last night.) They had some pretty neat ones on there. DH & I were looking & talking about the ones we liked. Love the hybrid, so maybe that one. But have to get the Saturn paid of before we can buy a new truck to replace DH's car, in order to haul something like that. The Saturn only hauls about 3500 lbs. Guess we'll keep tenting it for now!!

All have a good night. I'm going home from work & usually don't get on when I'm home. (We soooo need a new home computer!! I hate it, it's too slow!!)

Lisa told me about his and you can go to the HGTV website and see alot of the stuff that they showed, I had to stop watching before I sold the house..

Mr. Goofy's nickname is cholesterol boy. if you see the amounts of butter and cheese we go thru you would know why.. But I'm the one with the high cholesterol count!

 

[lisa8200]

I always like some grits with my cheese

 

[BigDaddyRog]

Onions and garlic in grits...you might be onto something there, John!!

Same way here Denise.....Ive been fat most of my life (took a few fat breaks here and there) And my wife is usually under 110lbs(sometimes she'll balloon up like a cow and go up to 113lbs), I have a lower cholesteral count than her by a looong shot....but on the other hand, she can out eat me at any one setting, she'll unbutton her jeans at a restaraunt and I'll request a pillow because I know its gonna be a while.

We walk into a buffet, and being the fat guy...people will tend to count how many trips I make to the food....meanwhile...I have to step outside to smoke a ciggarette while waiting on her to finish the bottom of every tray in the line!!! Skinny lil' glutton!!

Who said butter isn't good for you? TAKE THAT BACK RIGHT NOW! I am in a league above ROG, size wise, and my cholesterol is only 146. LOL I am on the seafood diet, See food, eat it.

 

[Gatordad]

we're not fat, we're undertall.

 

[RvUsa]

I wish I could use that line, but I am 6'8", so for my weight, I guess that I would need to be about 14' tall. lol would make a fortune in the NBA, but my bed would be way toooo short.

Yep, DW and I watched this show over the weekend. We just got lucky actually, had no idea it was on and just happened to be flipping channels just as it was starting. It's a show we like to watch each year, they do a really nice job showing different sizes and types of campers.

Some of those 5th wheelers were hugeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

there is a sea-food diet. it's when you can sea the food in the guys mouth across from you and then you can't eat cause your soo grossed out>>> Denise

Yuck, grits...I don't like them at all. But my dh (who is originally a northerner) loves them.

Butter is not bad for you! (There, I said it!)

When I was on a low-carb diet, besides losing 60 pounds, my blood pressure went down so I could stop taking meds, and my bad cholesterol went down and my good cholesterol went up! My doctor was very happy! And, I ate butter and cheese and sour cream, and put heavy cream in my coffee every day!

 

[BigDaddyRog]

Its amazing the things youre allowed to eat on an Atkins type diet.....all the mayo you can stand, butter sour cream, bacon, steak....only problem is what the heck do you put all that mayo and cheese and sour cream ON??? I lost 125 on atkins once....gained it all and more back, and for some reason it never worked again for me.

"I'll have the large mayo with a side of bacon please. Oh, and a Glass of meat drippings, easy on the ice. Thanks!!"

That happened to me too - I started my old way of eating again, and gained some back. So, I'm back to low carb again. Feeling much better! It's amazing how I have more energy, I sleep better, and can keep up with you guys!

I make wrap sandwiches in low-carb wraps or big lettuce leafs. Then I can use mayo and cheese. I put sour cream on my omelettes! Yummy!

Dont forget the melted cheese topping....
