Ingredients

• 3 cups water
• 6 large eggs
• 2 teaspoons olive oil
• 1 large zucchini, chopped
• 3/4 cup quick-cooking grits
• 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
• Optional: Pico de gallo and chopped fresh cilantro
• 1 can (15 ounces) of black beans, rinsed and drained
• 1 package (12 ounces) fully cooked chorizo chicken sausages or flavor of choice, sliced

Directions

• In a large skillet, heat oil over medium heat. 
• Add sausage; cook and stir until lightly browned, 2-3 minutes. 
• Add zucchini; cook and stir until tender, 4-5 minutes longer. Remove from pan; keep warm.
• In a large saucepan, bring water to a boil. 
• Slowly stir in grits. Reduce heat to medium-low; cook, covered, until thickened, stirring occasionally, about 5 minutes. 
• Stir in beans and cheese until blended. Remove from heat.
• Wipe skillet clean; coat with cooking spray and place over medium heat. 
• In batches, break eggs, 1 at a time, into the pan. Immediately reduce heat to low; cook until whites are completely set and yolks begin to thicken but are not hard for about 5 minutes.
• To serve, divide grit mixture among 6 bowls. Top with chorizo mixture, eggs, and, if desired, pico de gallo and cilantro.
