Notes
- For a spicier version of this recipe, add in some cayenne pepper or hot sauce.
- If you like your pimento cheese spread extra creamy, you can also add an extra tablespoon of mayonnaise.
- This spread is also delicious when served with sliced tomatoes, cucumbers, and celery.
- If you're short on time, you can also substitute pre-shredded cheese or even cream cheese for the cheddar cheese. This will give you a different flavor, but will still be delicious!
