Ingredients
  

  • 1/3 cup corn meal
  • 1 1/4 cup unsweetened almond milk
  • 1/4 teaspoon Sea Salt
  • 1 tablespoon vegan butter
  • 2 tablespoons fresh herbs like chopped parsley or cilantro

Instructions
 

  • In a small pot, bring the almond milk to a boil. Reduce the heat to a simmer and stir the corn meal into the almond milk. Add the salt and vegan butter, and turn the heat to the lowest setting. Cover the pot with a lid, and continue to cook for 5 to 6 minutes until the corn meal has softened, stirring occasionally.
  • Remove the pot from the heat, and allow the corn meal to sit for 5 minutes covered to thicken.
  • Serve the grits with an extra pad of vegan butter, and top with fresh herbs and chili flakes.  Enjoy!
