Pimento Cheese
Pimento Cheese has become known as a Southern Classic, sometimes lovingly referred to as "Southern Paté. It is wonderful as a sandwich spread, but is equally as good with crudités and on burgers. This recipe is plain and classic, but feel free to add some red pepper to spice it up!

- 2 ounces pimento peppers, diced
