Nutty Swiss-Cheddar-Pimento Cheese Spread image

For crackers, celery sticks, apple slices, or toasted sandwiches! Sixty (60) servings on crackers is a complete guess; I plan to make sandwiches from mine, but don't know how many it will make!

Time 3h30m

Yield 4 1/2 cups, 60 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 cup chopped pecans (Toasted)
4 ounces diced pimentos (well drained)
8 ounces low-fat cream cheese (Neufchatel preferred, at room temperature)
5 tablespoons mayonnaise
8 ounces extra-sharp cheddar cheese (freshly shredded)
12 ounces swiss cheese (freshly shredded)
1/4 teaspoon fresh coarse ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce

Steps:

  • Toast pecans in a medium-hot iron skillet ~ constantly stirring to prevent burning! Set aside to cool.
  • Drain pimentos in a wire strainer, covered with a folded paper towel, for about 1/2 hour.
  • In a large bowl, combine all ingredients. Use a food processor, if you have one!
  • Refrigerate cheese spread for a few hours, to allow flavors to meld.
  • Makes approximately 4 cups. Serve with crackers, celery sticks, sliced apples, or make toasted sandwiches!
  • Enjoy!
