I love good mini cheese sandwiches (I couldn't say pimiento as a child). So I wanted something a bit different to take to a game night with my friends. This is what happens when you throw together a combination of a couple of recipes and what's in your fridge. Ingredients:
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese |
1 cup shredded monterey jack cheese |
1 -2 tablespoon jalapeno juice |
1 (2 ounce) jar sliced pimientos, drained well |
3 ounces cream cheese, very soft |
1/2-1 cup mayonnaise |
Directions:
1. In a food processor, blend the cheeses, cream cheese, pimientos and drizzle in the desired amount of jalapeño juice, depending on how hot you like it.
2. Starting with 1/2 cup, add mayo and process. Add more mayo, a spoonful at a time, until the desired consistency is desired.
3. Chill one hour, covered, before serving. Store in an airtight container.
4. NOTE: I have never had this last very long enough to know how many days it will last.
