Preheat oven to 325°. Brown and crumble sausage. Drain off excess fat and set aside. Bring salted water to a boil and stir in grits. Cover and reduce heat to low.

Add sausage and 1/2 cheese sauce to cooked grits. Pour into lightly greased casserole. Make 4 indentions into grits mixture with the back of a large spoon. Break one egg into each indention. Bake at 325° for 13 to 18 minutes, depending on desired doneness of eggs. Serve with remaining heated sauce.
