Triple your pimiento cheese pleasure by using Cheddar, cream cheese, and a jar of pimiento cheese spread. If you can’t find the spread, just add about 4 or 5 ounces more of the shredded Cheddar and 2 more tablespoons of mayonnaise. Ingredients:
1 (8-oz.) package cream cheese |
1 (4-oz.) jar diced pimiento, drained |
1 (5-oz.) jar pimiento cheese spread |
1/2 cup mayonnaise |
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder |
1/4 teaspoon ground chipotle chile pepper |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
freshly ground pepper to taste |
3 cups (12 oz.) shredded sharp cheddar cheese |
Directions:
1. Microwave cream cheese in a microwave-safe bowl at HIGH 1 to 1 1/2 minutes or until melted and smooth, stirring at 30-second intervals. Stir in diced pimiento and next 6 ingredients.
2. Stir in Cheddar cheese. Serve immediately, or cover and chill up to 4 hours. Store in the refrigerator in an airtight container up to 4 days.
3. Note: For testing purposes only, we used Kraft Pimento Spread.
