I believe the answer is:

blended

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'cut up?' is the definition.
(crushed or cut up in a blender)

'grant in bed' is the wordplay.
'grant' becomes 'lend' (I can't justify this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'in' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'lend' put within 'bed' is 'BLENDED'.

'really' acts as a link.
I am not very happy about this link. It may belong to another bit of the clue.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Another definition for blended that I've seen is " Mixed together".)
