Meredith and I made pimento cheese for a party. Meredith had been holding onto this recipe for some time but never really had the chance until the party. The recipe is on this post. Meredith had taken the recipe from some book in Charleston, SC. We looked at a few recipes and this one sounded the best and also wasn't over the top.

Our changes to the recipe are as follows:

• Subbed cilantro for parsley
• Skipped the olives
• Add tabasco both for the flavor and to make up the lost bite of the olives
• Added smoked paprika
• More seasonings and to taste
• low fat mayo.

The dish was pretty good. It also seemed pretty popular at the party. We served it with bread and other crudités to dip. The bread went really fast and then people stopped eating it so we'll keep that in mind next time.

It also made an amazing meal the next night as grilled cheese.
