Pimento Cheese Weight Watchers Style image

A healthy version of my new addiction. Only 7 PointsPlus on WW per serving! This will be creamier than regular pimento cheese, but it's a great substitute. You can add diced jalapenos with the pimento peppers at the end for a fun, spicy twist. A note about the spices: you can add more or less, depending on your tastes. I love garlic, so I always add a little more. Even though salt is optional, I always add it!
