ROASTED PEPPER PIMIENTO-STYLE CHEESE
Pimiento cheese is sometimes known as "the caviar of the South." This spread is so good, it's been requested as gifts. It will keep for several days in the refrigerator (it gets even better overnight). Be sure to use real mayonnaise, not salad dressing, or the cheese will be too sweet. Serve with veggies and crackers or spread on top of grilled burgers. -Jerri Gradert, Lincoln, Nebraska
