Steps:
- Bring 3 cups of water to a boil in a medium covered saucepan over high heat. Uncover and slowly whisk in the grits, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Reduce the heat to medium low and cook, uncovered, stirring occasionally, until thickened, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat, stir in 1 tablespoon of the butter and the Parmesan and season with salt and pepper. Cover to keep warm.
- Meanwhile, sprinkle the shrimp with salt and pepper. Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, add the shrimp in a single layer and cook until the shrimp just start to turn bright pink on the bottom, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the wine and the peas, scraping up any browned bits on the bottom of the skillet. Bring to a simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, until the shrimp are opaque and cooked through and the peas are tender, 2 to 3 minutes (if the pan gets too dry, add water 1 tablespoon at a time). Add the tomatoes and scallions and toss with the shrimp and peas. Add the remaining 4 tablespoons butter and swirl the pan until there's a thick sauce.
- Serve the grits on a large platter and top with the shrimp, vegetables and butter sauce.

Steps:
- If using Slow Cooked Black Eyed Peas, skip #2 and move right into cooking the collards.
- In a medium saucepot, add the soaked black eyed peas, vegetable broth, onion, bell pepper, garlic, bayleaf, and optional tabasco. Bring to a boil, turn down to low or to a low simmer and cook for 45 minutes to one hour, uncovered. The peas should be tender with just a slight tooth, not mushy. Add the worcestershire, and liquid smoke. Taste for seasoning adjustment.
- In a large stockpot, bring the broth, liquid smoke, tamari sauce, and garlic to a boil. Add the collard greens, stir throughly using tongs, lid the pot and cook on med-low for between 10-15 minutes. Stir the greens at least twice while they cook down and become tender. Their color will darken a bit too. Add the apple cider vinegar and pinch of red pepper flakes. Taste for seasoning adjustment (add salt if needed).
- In a medium saucepot bring water and salt to a boil. Turn down to low and whisk in the grits. Stir in the nutritional yeast. Cook on low, covered, for 5 minutes. Adjust seasoning to taste. (if using cheese, stir in the cheese after cooking for 5 minutes). Grits can dry out pretty quick, so if you need, add a TBS of water at a time and stir in after they're done cooking.
- To an individual serving bowl, add the peas, greens and grits arranged separately. Serve with jalapeños and/or tabasco and plenty of BBQ sauce for slathering
- Store in individual lidded containers, refrigerated for up to two days.

Steps:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine flour with salt and pepper to taste. Dredge rabbit pieces in flour, and set aside.
- Place a large skillet over medium-high heat, and add oil. When oil is hot, add rabbit pieces, taking care not to crowd pan. Sauté until rabbit is well browned and meat is opaque, transferring pieces to a platter as they are cooked. Set aside, and keep warm.
- Return pan to medium-high heat, and add onions and turnips. Sauté until lightly browned, 4 to 5 minutes. Add carrots and morels, and sauté until vegetables are just tender. Add peas, and cook until tender. Transfer to rabbit platter, and keep warm.
- Place a saucepan over high heat, add milk, and bring to a simmer. Add grits, reduce heat to medium. Stir every 5 minutes until grits are creamy but slightly stiff, holding their shape when spooned, 25 to 30 minutes. Add milk if they become too stiff. Stir in mascarpone, and season with salt and pepper to taste.
- To serve, place equal portions of rabbit and vegetables on each of two large plates. Add a portion of grits to each plate, and garnish with chopped sage.
