Pimento Cheese image

My mom made this and we all loved it and shared with everyone. In the south my grandmother would buy this from the store and make us a sandwich. This is so much better. Great as a spread or dip too!

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 ounce(s) cream cheese, softened at room temp
1 cup(s) grated sharp cheddar cheese
1 cup(s) grated monterey jack cheese
1/2 cup(s) mayonnaise
1/4 teaspoon(s) salt
1/8 teaspoon(s) pepper
1/8 teaspoon(s) garlic powder
2-3 tablespoon(s) pimentos, smashed
1 teaspoon(s) grated onion, optional

Steps:

  • Beat cream cheese until smooth and fluffy. Then add all the rest of the ingredients and beat until well blended.
  • Use as a sandwich spread, or on crackers, or as a dip with vegetables. If you like it spicy add a few drops of tabasco sauce. Too easy. and It lasts for days in the fridge, well not in our house.
