8 servings
- 8 oz sharp cheddar cheese, freshly grated
- 4 oz cream cheese, softened
- ½ cup mayonnaise
Ingredient noteStore-bought mayonnaise and mayo-based sauces are made with pasteurized eggs, so they are generally fine during pregnancy.
- 1 jar (4 oz) diced pimentos, drained
- 1 tsp worcestershire sauce
- ½ tsp onion powder
- ¼ tsp garlic powder
- ¼ tsp cayenne pepper
- ¼ tsp black pepper
- salt, to taste
For serving
- crackers or sliced bread, for serving (optional)
Instructions
- 1
Grate the cheddar on the large holes of a box grater directly into a large mixing bowl. Freshly grated cheese blends more evenly than pre-shredded.
- 2
Add the softened cream cheese, mayonnaise, drained pimentos, Worcestershire sauce, onion powder, garlic powder, cayenne, and black pepper to the bowl.
