It is a regional favourite for good reasons.

Southern Pimento cheese is a great idea if you have ten more minutes today. It’s creamy, cheesy and slightly spicy, so it works equally well as a spread. You’ll find many ways to use it.

Serves 10
10 minutes

INGREDIENTS

1/2 cup mayonnaise
4 oz cream cheese, softened
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon paprika

2 cups sharp cheddar cheese, grated
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
