1 Servings

Ingredients

QuantityIngredient
poundsSharp cheddar cheese, grated
8ouncesDiced pimientos, drained
8ouncesPace Picante Sauce
Freshly ground pepper
3tablespoonsMayonnaise

Directions

Combine cheese, pimientos, and picane sauce. Add pepper to taste. Add mayonnaise and blend thoroughly. Store in refrigerator. This is quite hot; use less picante sauce for a milder mixture. Yields 1 quart.

Lou's note: This was published in 1983. Pace now makes a mild picante sauce that is not hot at all. In fact, I add a little Tabasco (but we like it hot).
