Pimento Cheese Recipe

This southern pimento cheese recipe is a household staple in the south.

It's great on a sandwich with a slice of vidalia onion or on top of a hamburger or on a plain cracker. If you've ever wondered how to make pimento cheese, wonder no more, this is a quick and easy recipe.

Here's what you'll need:

4 cups of colby-jack cheese, finely shredded
6 ounces of pimento, finely chopped
1/2 cup of mayonnaise (I use Dukes)

1 teaspoon of garlic powder
Salt to taste

Here's what you'll need to do:

In a large bowl, combine the cheese, pimento, mayonnaise, hot sauce and garlic powder.

Mash well with a fork or spatula until well mixed. Refrigerate at least an hour before serving to give the flavors a chance to blend together.

Serve between two slices of white bread with a slice of Vidalia Onion or on crackers as an appetizer. Elvis' favorite hamburger topping was pimento cheese!
