Rarely can I claim a recipe to be my own (versus something I found), but this one actually is-:) I was tired of following pimento cheese recipes only to be disappointed. Like anything, good pimento cheese is a subjective thing, so you may not like mine, but I sure do! I make mine up as I go along, so here's as close as I can get to an actual recipe:
8 oz sharp cheddar - grated
4 oz pepper jack - grated
2 T parmesan - grated
1 4-oz jar chopped pimentos, drained
as much mayo as seems right to you (somewhere around 1/2 cup, I think) - I always use Kraft full-fat, but everyone has a mayo preference
1 T dijon mustard
a pink of cayenne
Mix and serve with crackers, crudités or on a sandwich.
