2 tablespoons butter or margarine
1 teaspoon salt
3 1/2 cups milk
2 cups water
1 1/4 cups quick cooking grits
1 package (8 ounces) shredded cheddar cheese (2 cups)
1 teaspoon hot pepper sauce

Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. In 3 quart saucepan, combine butter, salt, 1 1/2 cups milk and water and heat to boiling over a medium high heat. Gradually stir in grits, beating constantly with wire whisk to prevent lumps. Reduce heat; cover and cook, stirring occasionally, 5 minutes (grits will be very stiff).

3. Grease shallow 2 1/2 quart casserole. Pour grits mixture into casserole. Bake, uncovered, 45 minutes, or until knife inserted in the center comes out clean
