Pimiento Cheese and Celery Sticks

Recipe courtesy of The Deen Brothers, from Y'all Come Eat.

"We didn't know pimiento cheese was a Southern thing until we started traveling and meeting folks who had never tasted it. We make ours special with plenty of cream cheese - in fact that's how we make a lot of stuff special. This one is Bobby's specialty."

Ingredients

  • 4 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 4 ounces (about 1 cup) sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
  • 4 ounces (about 1 cup) Monterey Jack cheese, shredded
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 3 tablespoons chopped pimiento
  • 1 teaspoon grated onion
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
  • Freshly ground black pepper
  • Celery sticks

Yields: about 3 cups


Preparation

In a food processor, process the cream cheese until smooth.

Step

Add the remaining ingredients, except the celery sticks; pulse until just combined. Scrape cheese mixture into a bowl and serve with celery sticks for dipping.
