With our HOT PIMENTO CHEESE DIP we’ve taken this spread beyond the sandwich plate, and added some extra savory flavor and just a hint of spice, to turn it into the best hot cheese dips around.

8
8 oz sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
8 oz cream cheese, softened
1 cup pimento peppers, diced, plus more for garnish
1 tbsp mayo
1/2 tbsp smoked paprika
1/2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
2 tsp Dijon mustard
1 cup thinly sliced green onions, plus more for garnish
1 cup crisp cooked, crumbled bacon, plus more for garnish
Into thw bowl of a food processor add all the ingredients, except the bacon and green onion. Blend together until everything\\\'s evenly incorporated and the dip is smooth. Transfer the dip to a medium sized skillet, and heat over medium low heat, stirring often, until the dip is heated through. Once the dip is hot, remove the skillet from heat, and stir in the bacon and green onion. Garnish with extra diced pimentos, bacon, and green onions, as desired. Serve this dip hot with tortilla chips or thin slices of a crusty baguette.
