Pimento Cheese Dip
Report
Pimento Cheese Dip blends shredded cheddar, cream cheese, mayonnaise, and chopped pimentos with grated onion for a creamy, tangy spread. It can be served cold with crackers and vegetables or baked warm until bubbly, making it versatile for snacks or sandwiches.
Description
This dip combines sharp cheddar cheese, softened cream cheese, and mayonnaise for a rich, creamy base. Chopped jarred pimentos add a mild, sweet pepper flavor, while grated onion introduces subtle pungency. The ingredients are mixed until nearly smooth using a hand mixer or food processor.
Serving options include cold as a spread for crackers, vegetables, or sandwiches, or baked in a dish at 350°F for 15–20 minutes to create a warm, gooey appetizer. The dip stores well in an airtight container refrigerated up to one week, maintaining its creamy texture.
