Home-made Cheese Pimiento Filling

I love Cheese Pimiento and I am sure you love it too! I like how the cheese and the bell pepper create creamy and sweet flavor with hints of tanginess. While most of this filling is conveniently available in stores already bottled, sometimes there's a desire to make our own to suit our tastebuds. And it is very easy to make as ingredients are just in our cupboards and in the groceries.
Here's a very simple Cheese Pimiento Filling recipe



Ingredients
  • 3 cups grated (or "chopped ") cheese, 
  • 1 cup canned pimientos, drained and finely chopped
  • Salt, Pepper and sugar to taste, optional
Procedure
  1. In a bowl, mix the cheese and pimiento until even.
  2. Place in the mixture in the microwave oven for a minute.
  3. Mix and adjust flavor using salt, pepper and sugar.
  4. Let it cool and store in a bottle

Usually, I just use cheese and pimientos and don't bother with the seasonings. Others add butter and evaporated milk to make it more spreadable. You can also use a mixture of cheese so you can experiment with the taste as well as consistency. Maybe next time I'll add some garlic powder  to have another flavor dimension to this cheesey filling we all love. Enjoy!
