Pimento Cheese without Cream Cheese

Pimento Cheese without Cream Cheese

A pimento cheese recipe without cream cheese. I am crazy about pimento cheese, and this is the best recipe that I have ever tried — and it doesn’t need cream cheese. My only stipulation is that Duke’s mayonnaise makes a delicious difference.
