Ingredients

  • 1 ½ cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese
  • ½ cup shredded pepper jack cheese
  • ½ cup mayonnaise
  • 1 (4 ounce) diced pimentos, drained
  • ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ⅛ teaspoon salt
  • ⅛ teaspoon ground black pepper

Instructions

  • Freshly shred the cheddar cheese and pepper jack cheese. Place in a large bowl.
  • Stir in the mayonnaise with the cheese.
  • Stir in the drained diced pimento peppers, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix until completely combined.
  • Serve immediately or cover and store in the refrigerator.

Notes

  • My number one tip is to freshly shred your cheese. This makes a big difference with the flavor and texture.
  • Drain the pimentos well. This will help make sure your spread doesn't become to watery.
  • Adjust the pimentos. You can adjust the amount of peppers to your taste.
  • Adjust the mayonnaise. You can add more mayonnaise depending on how creamy you like your pimento cheese.
  • Double the recipe for a large crowd.
