1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper

2 cups (8 ounces) shredded Cheddar cheese
6 slices bacon, chopped
2 pounds (Fresh) medium shrimp, peeled and deveined
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley

(You can add about 1/4 cup of Half & Half to the grits after they are cooked to add a creamy texture. It doesn't change the flavor, just the consistency) Very Yummy!
