2 bacon slices, chopped
2 (14 1/2-ounce) cans chicken broth
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup quick-cooking grits
2 large tomatoes, peeled and chopped
2 tablespoons canned chopped green chiles
1 cup (4 ounces) shredded Cheddar cheese
Garnishes: chopped tomato, cooked and crumbled bacon, shredded Cheddar cheese

COOK bacon in a heavy saucepan until crisp, reserving drippings in pan.
Gradually add broth and salt; bring to a boil.

if desired. Yield: 6 servings.
Prep: 10 min., Cook: 30 min., Stand: 5 min.
