A simple pimiento cheese sandwich makes an easy, inexpensive lunch, and is perfect with a cold Arnold Palmer.<\/p>\n<p>In this recipe, we\u2019ll make our own <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/pimento-cheese\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/pimento-cheese\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">pimiento cheese<\/a> with lots of cream cheese, spices, freshly grated cheddar and Monterey Jack, a bit of mayo and a whole jar of fire-red pimiento peppers. It\u2019s served on white bread, specifically, because that\u2019s the tried-and-true way. Just ask any southerner!<\/p>\n<h2>Pimiento Cheese Sandwich Ingredients<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-2122618\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Pimiento-Cheese-Sandwich_TOHVS25_263690_MF_02_27_1.jpg?fit=700%2C1024\" alt=\"pimientos, white bread, cheese, mayonnaise and spices\" width=\"700\" height=\"1024\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><span class=\"credits-overlay\"><span class=\"image-credit noskim\">TASTE OF HOME<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Cheese:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/how-to-soften-cream-cheese\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/how-to-soften-cream-cheese\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">Soften the cream cheese<\/a> before beating it with the other ingredients. This will help break up the lumps. Also, I recommend grating your cheese fresh from the block, because the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/cellulose-in-shredded-cheese\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/cellulose-in-shredded-cheese\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">cellulose in pre-shredded cheese<\/a> can affect the taste and texture of the spread.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Mayonnaise:<\/strong> Most southerners will tell you that Duke\u2019s mayonnaise is best for pimiento cheese. If you don\u2019t have access to Duke\u2019s, don\u2019t worry; your favorite mayonnaise will do just fine.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Spices:<\/strong> There\u2019s no shortage of flavors in a pimiento cheese sandwich! Onion powder, garlic powder, salt, pepper, cayenne pepper and even a dash of hot sauce all work together to bring bold, pungent flavors to the pimiento cheese.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Pimientos:<\/strong> Our pimiento cheese recipe calls for one entire 4-ounce jar of pimiento peppers. Be sure to drain the liquid before using the peppers.<\/li>\n<li><strong>White bread:<\/strong> White bread is essential to any pimiento cheese sandwich. Buy your favorite from the store, or try your hand at making a loaf of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/basic-homemade-bread\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/basic-homemade-bread\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">homemade bread<\/a>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Directions<\/h2>\n<h3>Step 1: Make the pimiento cheese spread<\/h3>\n<p>In a large bowl, use a hand mixer or stand mixer to beat the cream cheese, mayonnaise, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, pepper, cayenne pepper and hot sauce at medium speed until fluffy. Use a rubber spatula or spoon to fold in the pimientos and shredded cheeses.<\/p>\n<h3>Step 2: Chill the cheese<\/h3>\n<p>Cover the bowl with storage wrap, then refrigerate the cheese spread for at least 30 minutes.<\/p>\n<h3>Step 3: Assemble the sandwiches<\/h3>\n<p>Spread the pimiento cheese on four slices of white bread. Top the sandwich with the remaining four slices of bread, then slice each sandwich in half.

The crunchy, salty, meaty punch complements the spicy cheese.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Top with pickles:<\/strong> For a vinegary kick, add pickles to your sandwich! You can either arrange pickles inside the sandwich or squeeze a little relish into the cheese spread while folding in the peppers and shredded cheese.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Squeeze in citrus:<\/strong> Refresh the pimiento cheese\u2019s flavor with a squeeze of fresh lemon or lime juice.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>How to Store a Pimiento Cheese Sandwich<\/h2>\n<p>Store leftovers of your pimiento cheese sandwich in an airtight container. It can be stored in the fridge for up to four days, but keep in mind that the bread will become soggy overtime.<\/p>\n<h3>Can you make a pimiento cheese sandwich ahead of time?<\/h3>\n<p>I recommend only making the pimiento cheese spread ahead of time and assembling the sandwiches just when you\u2019re ready to serve them. Otherwise, the bread could become soggy as the sandwich sits. Make the pimiento cheese spread up to four days in advance and store it in an airtight container in the fridge.<\/p>\n<h2>Pimiento Cheese Sandwich Tips<\/h2>\n<h3>What do I serve with pimiento cheese sandwiches?<\/h3>\n<p>You can serve lots of sides along with your pimiento cheese sandwich.

These peppers are a main ingredient to pimiento cheese, and are often found stuffed in Spanish olives.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cheesy, tangy and just a little bit spicy, a pimiento cheese sandwich makes a perfect no-cook lunch.
