No More Free Juice Glasses

When I was a kid, my favorite refrigerator sneaky-snack was a  finger lick of pimiento cheese that came in a small glass, later recycled into a juice glass. I loved that stuff. But when it no longer appeared in our fridge, I forgot about it until more recent years when I would occasionally buy it. Pretty pricey for what it is. Then Bobbie Deen, Paula's son, brought it up on his show the other day and claimed his mother made it for his family, spreading it on grilled cheese sandwiches. I watched him put together pimiento cheese quick as a lick. A half cup of soft cream cheese, a half cup of shredded cheddar cheese, a quarter cup of jarred roasted red peppers, chopped,  and a hefty tablespoon of olive tapenade. Mix it all up and lather some between bread and make yourself the most delicious grilled cheese sandwich.  Gooey goodness, comfort food.
