Provided by @MakeItYours

Number Of Ingredients 6

8 ounces extra-sharp cheddar cheese , grated with a food processor or hand grater (not pre-grated)
1/4 cup softened cream cheese (2 ounces), pulled into several pieces
Scant 1/2 cup jarred pimento or other roasted red peppers (from a 7-ounce jar), finely diced
