    I really do like the fact that you lighten the recipe. So many of us need that. - 7/21/13

    Incredible!
    Amazing! Never have been a fan of store bought pimento cheese spreads. This recipe is awesome! I am IN LOVE! I could eat the whole batch by myself. I took it to Mother's Day lunch and everyone loved it. My mom said it tastes just like her granny's recipe! - 5/10/10
