Cube the tofu and season it, then saute over medium-high heat until browned, about 9 minutes.

Add the collard greens, bell pepper and corn kernels, cooking until softened, about 7 minutes.

Stir in the brown sugar and cheddar cheese for 2 minutes until melted.

Cook the grits separately, whisking until smooth.

Let the tofu simmer for about 5 minutes so the flavors meld.

Taste and adjust the seasoning.

Serve hot over the grits, garnished with fresh herbs.
