                    My attempt to create an equivalent of pimento cheese spread. I returned home from a three week trip to find an extravagant amount of grated swiss cheese in my fridge; I could not envision all that cheese going to waste. So, this recipe is a work in progress. Give me feedback! Ingredients:

                                                6 slices minced cooked bacon (i used 8 slices today, and dh thought it was great, but i thought it a bit much)  |  
                                                1 tablespoon bacon grease (i'll try leaving this out next time(i was after flavor and spreadability)  |  
                                                1/2 teaspoon salt (add in increments, tasting for salt preference)  |
