Piggy-back Pimento Cheese...

Miles and Owen named this recipe. I hope that explains things a little...



Piggy-back Pimento Cheese
(dip & sandwich spread)

Ingredients:
2 cups sharp cheddar, grated
2 cups jalepeno jack cheese, grated
1 8z. block cream cheese, room temp
1 large jar diced pimentos, drained
1 lb. bacon, fried crisp & crumbled
Mayonaise
Salt & Pepper to taste
2 smidgens Garlic Powder (two pinches for you non-southerners)

Grate cheese and set aside. Whip room temp cream cheese in mixing bowl, then whip in grated cheese. Add in drained pimentos, then add in mayonaise little by little until you like the consistency. Add in bacon crumbles, garlic powder and begin adding salt and pepper to taste. You are looking for a slightly salty, smoky flavor.

Serve on bread or crackers or celery sticks if you are trying to be skinny.
