Holiday Rosemary and Ham Casserole

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Layer ham into a 2-quart casserole dish.

Bring water to a boil in a saucepan. Slowly pour grits into the water while stirring constantly. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until the grits are tender and thick 3 to 4 minutes. Mix Cheddar cheese and butter into grits.

Whisk milk eggs salt and cayenne pepper together in a bowl; stir in rosemary and garlic. Pour grit mixture over ham. Cover casserole dish with aluminum foil.

Bake in the preheated oven until casserole is bubbling about 45 minutes.
