Pimento Cheese
Pimento Cheese
Yes, it's one of those love it or hate it foods. I'm in the 'love it' camp and I love it even more when I make it myself. And it's super easy. Who knew?
Great on crackers, celery, in a sandwich or on a tortilla roll up. I also like to slice up some nice fresh radishes and dip them in the yummy goodness (low carb).
This recipe makes a lot- so you can share some or cut the recipe in half, if you want.
12 ounces of Sharp Cheddar Cheese (shredded)
6 ounces of Mild Cheddar or Monterrey Jack -or a mix (shredded)
(*You know why cheese tastes better when you shred it yourself? Because the preshredded kind has a powdery coating on it to keep it from clumping. However, sometimes you are in a hurry, so preshredded will work here, if you are in a time crunch. I know you're busy.)
Roasted Red Peppers in a jar
Mayonnaise
Cayenne pepper
Combine the shredded cheeses in a large bowl and then cut up the amount of roasted red pepper that looks good to you. Add just enough mayo (go slowly) to make it stick together but not be too mushy. When you stir it, it should make a sound that would make your teenager say, "Mom! Gross!". Add a dash of cayenne. You just want a tiny taste of the cayenne.
Store in refrigerator. See? I told you it was easy!
