  • 1 (8 oz. block) cream cheese softened
  • 2 cups coarsely shredded sharp or extra sharp Cheddar cheese divided
  • 1 cup coarsely shredded Monterey Jack cheese
  • 1/4 cup finely minced onion
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce or to taste

  • 1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper or to taste
  • 6 oz. jarred pimentos drained and patted dry between paper towels

  1. Beat together Almond Breeze and cream cheese in a large bowl until smooth. Beat in 1 cup Cheddar cheese. Stir in remaining cheese, onion, Worcestershire, garlic powder and cayenne pepper until well mixed, then stir in pimentos.

  2. Cover and chill for several hours to allow flavors blend.
