Black Bean Chili and Fried Grits
Tuesdays are our day for eating light. Chris usually has burgers for
lunch and the weekend is behind us, making it a good day to use up some
weekend leftovers. Tonight, we enjoy one of our favorites,
black bean chili,
serving them over some fried grits.

Instructions
We begin by removing our leftover cheesy grits from the fridge. It had been spread in a 8 x 8 inch glass pan and covered with plastic wrap last night. Tonight we cut triangles out, 2 per person, using only half the leftover grits. We pat the triangles dry with paper towels. We pour some flour on top of the grits on a plate and coat all sides.
We heat our large non-stick pan over medium heat with the olive oil. When the oil is hot, we add four triangles and panfry for a few minutes on each side. We want the triangles golden brown and crispy.
