Ingredients
1/2 lb turkey breakfast sausage
1 1/2 cup 1% low-fat milk
1 1/2 cup water
3/4 cup quick-cooking grits
3/4 cup shredded reduced-fat sharp cheddar; cheese, (3 ounces)
3 tablespoon minced fresh parsley
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
1 dash ground red pepper
3 egg whites
1 vegetable cooking spray
2 cup red bell pepper strips
Cooking Directions:
Cook sausage in a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until browned, stirring to crumble. Drain and set aside.
Combine milk and water in a saucepan; bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Stir in grits; cover, reduce heat, and simmer 7 minutes or until thickened, stirring frequently. Combine grits mixture, sausage, cheese, parsley, salt, garlic, and peppers in a large bowl; set aside.
Beat egg whites (at room temperature) at high speed of a mixer until stiff peaks form. Gently stir one-fourth of egg whites into grits mixture; gently fold in remaining egg whites. Spoon mixture into a 1-1/2-quart casserole coated with cooking spray. Bake at 375 degrees for 25 minutes or until set and lightly browned.
Place a medium nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Add bell pepper, and saute 4 minutes or until tender; serve warm with grits. Yield: 6 servings (serving size: 1 cup grits and 1/3 cup bell pepper).
