I made these as finger sandwiches for a potluck. I ended up with about 30, 1/4 slice sandwiches with enough for a hearty whole sandwich for myself! I added a full tsp of cayenne, and 1/2 tsp minced garlic instead of garlic powder, and added a few dashes of paprika for added color and smokiness. I went with the shredded cheese instead of cheese food and it was awesome. Yummy!

I had my doubts but this turned out so good. I changed a few things but I chalk it up to personal taste so I still give it 5 stars. I used a little garlic salt instead of garlic powder and light cream cheese and half light mayo/half regular mayo. I used the small block of Velveeta shredded and it wasn't enough cheese so I added some mild cheddar. The only thing I might advise others to change is to add more cheese if you prefer yours to be less mayo"naissy".

This is absolutely wonderful and reminded me of my Nanny's Pimento Cheese spread. I don't care for Velveeta cheese food, I used shredded Cheddar Cheese, and it was perfect.

Good. Has just the right amount of kick to the dip. Next time I may use sour cream and grated instead of shredded cheese. I used regular cheddar in this recipe.

I love pimento cheese. This recipe was not only very quick and easy, but also very good. The only thing I changed was instead of using 1/2 cup of mayo I used 1/4 cup of mayo and 1/4 cup of sour cream. Next time I might even try only sour cream. Thanks for the great recipe!

This is simple to make and delicious. This is great as a sandwich, spread on crackers or with celery sticks. We love the kick from the cayenne pepper.

Great simple recipe. I used lite ingredients so I saved a few calories but it tasted as good as the first time I made it. I used 4 oz. pimento's, 2 cup of low-fat cheddar cheese,low fat onions & chives cream cheese, about 1 tbsp of light sour cream, lite mayo not quite a 1/2 of cup.lite mayo.cup, Cayenne pepper to taste. I also added sliced salad olives just for fun. Put in middle of tray with sliced tomatoes, cucumbers, and party rye bread. Simple and easy appetizer.

This is my mom's recipe, and my sister submitted this, so I have to leave my comments about what I do differently...I usually sub sour cream for the cream cheese, its easier to stir. I also let this mellow in the frig a bit before serving. I love the kick the cayenne pepper gives this! Thanks, Mom! Love you!

Scrumptious! I used real cheddar in lieu of processed cheese food and reduced fat cream cheese and mayo. I increased the pimento to 3 oz. and added freshly ground black pepper as well as a dash of worstershire. TIP: try it on bread with juicy tomatoes and crisp lettuce.

I have made this at least 6 times this summer. Each time I tweak it a little one way or the other. This is a great recipe and I have used it both with processed or shredded cheddar cheese. It really just depends on personal preference. I am going to try subbing the sour cream for cream cheese next!
