How about a pimento cheese grilled sandwich or a panini? My Memma always made pimento cheese from scratch. I use a Paula Deen recipe, but of course, like everything else, I add my own touch. I will give you both versions.
Paula's Pimento Cheese
3/4 cup cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup mayo
2 cups shredded cheddar cheese (sharp)
2 cups shredded white cheddar cheese
1 4 oz jar pimentos, drained
2 Tablespoons chopped pickled jalapenos
1/4 tsp salt
In a medium bowl, combine cream cheese and mayo, stirring well. Add cheddar, white cheddar cheese, pimento, pickled jalapeno, salt, stirring until combined.
Spread 1/2 cup of cheese mixture on bread slice. Top with bread slice. Heat panini press, spray with cooking spray, place sandwich on panini press and cook until golden brown (2 to 3 minutes).
Brenda's Pimento Cheese
Add a chunk of Velvetta cheese ---a cup --to the above mixture and I also add pepper.
You can also use this as an appetizer and spread on crackers.
My Daughter, Holly's Pimento Cheese - Really Simple
Go to Publix, find the Pimento Cheese spread in a container in the dairy section....it says "hot" on it. Buy a couple of these, take home, empty into a pretty serving dish, and say, "look what I made." It is really good!
