Wash and dry all produce. Remove and discard ribs and stems from @kale{8%oz}. Roughly chop leaves. Halve @grape tomatoes{20%oz} lengthwise. Halve, peel, and thinly slice @yellow onion{2%unit}.

Heat a drizzle of @vegetable oil{4%tsp} in a #large pan{} over medium-high heat. Add @fresh pork chorizo{12%oz}, breaking it up into pieces, and cook until cooked through and lightly crisped, 3-4 minutes. Remove from pan and set aside. Meanwhile, bring 2½ cups water to a boil in a #medium pot{}.

Add onion and a drizzle of oil to same pan over medium-high heat. Cook until soft, 4-5 minutes. Season with @salt{} and @pepper{}. Add tomatoes and cook until just soft, 2-3 minutes. Add @chicken stock concentrate{2%unit}, ⅓ cup water, kale, and ½ tsp @smoked paprika{2%tsp} (save the rest for garnish). Cook until kale is tender, 3-4 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.

Once water is boiling, whisk @grits{1%cup} into pot. Cook, stirring frequently, until thick, 5-7 minutes. (TIP: Add a few splashes of water if grits become stiff.) Add @cheddar cheese{1%cup} and 2 TBSP @butter{4%tbsp} and stir until melted. Season with salt and pepper.

Stir chorizo into pan with veggies. (TIP: Mixture should have a saucy consistency. Stir in up to ¼ cup water if it seems dry.)

Divide grits between plates. Top with chorizo mixture. Sprinkle with a pinch of smoked paprika and serve.
