Pimento Cheese Sandwich

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Make the Pimento Cheese Spread

    In a mixing bowl, combine the sharp cheddar cheese, cream cheese, mayonnaise, diced pimentos, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined and creamy.

  2. 2

    Assemble the Sandwich

    Spread a generous amount of the pimento cheese mixture on two slices of bread. Top with the remaining slices of bread to form sandwiches.

  3. 3

    Grill the Sandwiches

    Heat a skillet over medium heat and melt 1 tablespoon of butter. Place the sandwiches in the skillet and cook until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes per side. Add more butter as necessary.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Once grilled to perfection, remove from the skillet, cut in half, and serve warm with your choice of sides: fruit, cheese grits, fries, or side salad.
