Best Gluten-Free Pimento Cheese

We love pimento cheese around our house. It's great on a stick of celery, between two slices of Udi's Gluten-Free White Sandwich Bread, or open-faced on bread and toasted under the broiler. And the best thing about this recipe is how EASY it is to make. You won't buy the cheap stuff in the tub again! And this recipe lasts in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks!

Pam's Perfect Pimento Cheese

4 cups of freshly grated extra-sharp cheddar cheese**
1/2 Texas sweet onion (or Vidalia/New Mexico variety) grated
1/4 c. homemade mayonnaise (see my earlier post)
1 (4 oz.) jar of pimentos, drained and finely chopped
Dash of Tabasco
Coarse sea salt and freshly ground pepper


Combine grated cheese, grated onion and pimentos in a bowl. Stir well. Add pimentos and hot sauce. Season with salt and pepper, and you're ready to go!

**you MUST grate it yourself -- pre-grated cheese doesn't make creamy pimento cheese
