White Pimento Cheese
Pimento cheese is such a staple at my tea table. I love this spread with absolutely everything from pita bread to pita chips or crackers, toast points, on my favorite bread for a sandwich or just all by itself! It’s just so good! I tried to think of ways to make this a little bit different from the standard pimento cheese so I used white cheddar instead of regular cheddar cheese. I also added a little tiny bit of feta that gives this a little sharper taste and deepens the richness of the cheese flavor. This is the easiest spread to put together in a pinch. Add a little scone or a sweet bite with your favorite cup of tea, and you have an afternoon tea lunch that everyone will love!!
