It just takes six ingredient recipe, or four ingredients if you don’t count salt or pepper. This is also a no-cook appetizer, so it would be good to engage the young chefs to help measure, mix and assemble.
Ingredients
- 4 Cups (16oz.) – Grated Mild Cheddar Cheese, not pre-grated.
- 4 oz. – Pimentos
- 1 Cup – Mayonnaise
- 1/2 Teaspoon – Salt
- 1/2 Teaspoon – Pepper
- 1/2 Teaspoon – garlic Powder
- 1 Bunch – Celery
Preparation

- Clean and prep the Celery and add Pimento Cheese Spread with the aid of a butter knife.
This is an “old-school” favorite that will remind you of the pot luck church socials, but your kids will love it too.
Also serves well on fancy crackers or as a sandwich spread.
My grandmother use to have this every Thanksgiving as one of her sides. I so miss this, the way she made it and this is the closest recipe I have found to hers.
