There's a BBQ joint we usually have our final dinner before returning home from our annual ski trip that has green chile cheese grits. It uses a diffrent cheese though. I thought it odd being that it's in MT.

Looks good. Cooked chicken or pork could turn it into an entree.

@Kachina624 Yes love green Chile... just took some out of the freezer that we roasted this past summer. Walmart had cases of Hatch for $10.00... great price but they weren't roasting. DH had them roasted in a couple hours.

DH would love this recipe. I eat plant based so I wouldn't be eating the sour cream or cheese.. I do make a plant based feta that might sub for the cheeses...I may have to play around with this.

Thanks @Reconnaissant for the recipe. DW

I plan to make this soon but will swap cauliflower rice for the cooked rice, and add some kind of grilled meat on the side for a complete dinner for us.
