Pimento cheese...so Southern, so good. I was buying it from the grocery store until I discovered how easy it is to make on my own!

3 oz cream cheese, room temperature
2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese
1 cup mayonnaise
3 tablespoons diced pimentos
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
salt and pepper to taste

With an electric mixer, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Add the remaining ingredients, beat until well blended and the shredded cheese has been broken up some. Serve with crackers or as a dip for veggies.
