Jalapeno Cheese Grits

4 1/2 cups water
1 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups quick-cooking grits
4 cups (1 pound) shredded sharp Cheddar cheese
1/4 cup butter or margarine
2 canned jalapeno peppers, seeded and chopped
2 tablespoons chopped pimiento
1 teaspoon salt
3 eggs, beaten

Combine water and 1 teaspoon salt in a large saucepan, bring to a boil. Gradually stir grits into water, cover, reduce heat to low, and cook 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add cheese and butter; stir until melted. Stir in peppers, pimiento, and 1 teaspoon salt. Add a small amount of hot grits to eggs, stirring well; stir egg mixture into the remaining grits. Pour grits into a lightly greased 12 by 8 by 2inch baking dish. Bake, uncovered, at 350 degrees for 30 minutes. Makes 8 to 10 servings.
