Ingredients

5 sprays cooking spray

6 cups water

1 1/2 cups uncooked corn grits

1 tsp salt, or to taste

6 oz baby kale, firmly packed (about 4 cups)

4 oz reduced-fat cheddar cheese

1/8 tsp pepper, or to taste

1 cup grape tomatoes, halved

6 Tbsp real bacon bits, for garnish

6 large eggs, cooked sunny-side up

Directions

Coat inside of a 6-quart slow cooker with cooking spray.

Add water; whisk in grits and salt to combine (make sure there are no lumps in grits). Cover slow cooker; cook on low until grits are tender and creamy, 8 hours.

Uncover slow cooker; stir in kale and cheese. Cook on low (or warm setting) until kale has wilted, about 30 minutes. Taste and adjust for seasoning with salt and pepper; serve sprinkled with tomatoes and bacon bits, and topped with a sunny-side up egg.
