This is from The Best of the Best from Colorado. It is a very pretty dish and more flavorful than just having grits. Good as a side dish instead of rice or potatoes. I did need to cook it longer than the recipe called for, and I let it set for about 10 minutes after taking it out of the oven. Though the recipe calls for Worcestershire sauce, I always substitute this sauce and use soy sauce. I also cut the recipe in half for just the two of us. As always, I'm estimating the complete time.
