Meyer Ladies' Pimento Cheese

So, there is this thing, I like to call it "tradition", that we do whenever the Meyer ladies are together.  We sit at the kitchen table, chat, and snack on this pimento cheese and Triscuits....there is always the "Meyer Family Chicken Salad" too!  I wonder if the Meyer men's ears ever burn?  Hmm. 

No Triscuits in the house.....
had to use Ritz!    

Meyer Ladies' Pimento Cheese
from The Meyer Ladies

Ingredients -

2 c finely shredded cheddar cheese (I use mild cheddar)
1 c mayo
1 T diced pimentos plus add a little juice
black pepper to taste

Directions -

1. Dump all ingredients into a medium bowl and stir until mixed well.
2. I like to let it set in the frig. overnight....the flavor is better that way. 
3. It's great served on crackers or as a sandwich. 

This recipe makes 2 c pimento cheese spread.
That will cover 32 crackers if you use 1 tablespoon pimento cheese spread.
