Pimento Cheese Spread

You are not a true southerner until you know these recipes. Today’s recipe is pimento cheese spread. A mayonnaise lovers delight.

Ingredients

2 cups shredded cheese

1 cup mayonnaise

2 tablespoons sour cream

1/2 tsp garlic powder

1/4 tsp cayenne pepper

1/4 tsp salt

1/4 cup of diced pimentos

Combine all ingredients and refrigerate to let the flavors meld. Serve on white bread, preferably with the crusts removed. Delicious! For those who are non-traditional this recipe can be served as a cold or hot dip on crackers, used to make a grilled cheese sandwich, or even used to top a hamburger. I am using it tonight to stuff jalapeño peppers. There are no limits to its use. The adventuresome can add chopped green or black olives, or some chopped jalapeño pepper.
