INCREDIBLE PIMENTO CHEESE



Incredible Pimento Cheese image

Our favorite, from Southern Living Homestyle cooking 2002. This makes a lot, I often half the recipe. It freezes well for up to a month. I usually double the pimento. My mom makes it with light velvetta, reduced fat cheeses, lite mayo and splenda and it is still really good.
