Directions:
In a 2 1/2- quart saucepan, bring milk just to a simmer over medium-high heat.
Slowly whisk in grits. Reduce heat to low and cover. Continue to whisk every minute to keep from forming lumps.
Cook about 5 minutes or until grits begin to thicken.
Add ham, cheese, and 1/4 cup cup green onion; stir until cheese begins to melt.
Cover and remove from heat; let stand 3 to 4 minutes or until heated through.
Stir again; spoon into serving dishes. Garnish with remaining 2 tablespoons green onion and serve warm.
