Black truffle and cheese grits

On Valentine’s Day, I woke up in a panic, realizing that I hadn’t planned anything for breakfast!

This simple dish was inspired by Mario Batali’s Bavette Cacio & Pepe. The list of ingredients may make it sound like a boring side, but try a bite and you’ll want to turn it into a meal.
I go for a slightly healthier take on Batali’s dish replacing some butter for olive oil and adding some [...]
