This is my son Bobby’s own recipe for pimento cheese. It is a definite favorite.

Ingredients

　　One 3-ounce package cream cheese, softened

　　1 cup grated sharp Cheddar cheese

　　1 cup grated Monterey Jack cheese

　　1/2 cup mayonnaise

　　1/2 teaspoon House Seasoning (see page 325)

　　2 to 3 tablespoons mashed pimentos

　　1 teaspoon grated onion (optional)

　　Cracked black pepper to taste

　　With an electric mixer, beat cream cheese until fluffy. Add remaining ingredients and beat until well blended.
