  2. 2 cups fresh or thawed frozen corn kernels
  3. 4 cups low-sodium chicken broth
  4. ½ teaspoon salt
  5. 1¼ cups quick-cooking grits (not instant)
  6. ½ cup heavy whipping cream
  7. 2 cups shredded smoked Gouda cheese
  8. ½ cup minced green onion
  9. 2 large eggs, lightly beaten

Instructions
