Pimento Cheese

Pimento Cheese

  • 4 c. shredded sharp cheddar cheese
  • 8 oz. cream cheese
  • 1/2 c. mayonnaise
  • 1 t. garlic powder
  • 1/2 t. cayenne pepper (or more to taste)
  • 1 t. onion powder
  • 1 jar (4oz) diced pimento (I used more) not drained
  • ½ c. chopped salad olives
  • 1 small can of chopped green chilis not drained
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Place all ingredients in a large bowl and use your mixer to blend, at medium speed til thoroughly combined. I was going to try capers next cause I love them! Store in an airtight container in the fridge and lasts for a long time. Softens a bit at room temps.
