Southern Pimento Cheese

JC Phelps
There are few foods that are more quintessentially southern than pimento cheese. With the addition of three cheeses and grated onion, mine is easy-to-make and chock-full of flavor. Please enjoy my Southern Pimento Cheese Recipe!

Ingredients
  

  • 1 c Monterey Jack shredded/freshly grated
  • 1 c Sharp Cheddar shredded/freshly grated

  • 4 oz Cream Cheese
  • 6 tbsp Diced Pimentos
  • 4 tbsp Vidalia Onion grated
  • Garlic Powder to taste
  • Kosher Salt to taste
  • Black Pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • In a large bowl, combine all ingredients. Mix until well-incorporated. I typically make mine in my stand mixer!

  • Serve on a croissant or artisan bread with lettuce.
  • Enjoy!
