- 1 teaspoon garlic salt
- 1 cup uncooked quick-cooking grits
- 1/3 cup finely chopped red onion
- 5 tablespoons butter, divided
- 2 large eggs
- 1 (10-oz.) package frozen chopped spinach, thawed and drained
- 1 1/2 cups (6 oz.) shredded Parmesan cheese
- 1/2 cup bottled creamy Caesar dressing
- 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
- 1 1/4 cups coarsely crushed garlic-flavored croutons
- Preheat oven to 350u0b0. Bring garlic salt and 4 cups water to a boil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat; gradually stir in grits. Reduce heat to medium, and cook, stirring often, 5 minutes or until thickened. Remove from heat, and stir in onion and 3 Tbsp. butter.
