I found out a long time ago that I cannot eat bell peppers of any kind. Even the smell brings on a level of heartburn that is miserable. I do however, love the flavor of a lot of the dishes that contain them. I have had to re-invent recipes to satisfy my craving for these dishes. Lately, I've seen many recipes for pimento cheese and read the raves on the wonderful tastes. So... I decided to make a pimento-less or 'mock' pimento cheese spread. I think it turned out really well! However, if you are a die hard pimento fan... add it in and you'll be very pleased!

| Ingredients: 2 cups cheddar cheese 8oz cream cheese 2 T sour cream 1 tsp lemon juice 4 cloves roasted garlic 1/4 tsp onion powder 1/4 tsp garlic powder 1/8 tsp cayenne pepper 1/4 tsp sea salt |
 |
| Cream cheese goes in... This recipe gave me a chance to use my new Cruisinart PowerBlend Duet... "free" from the Pig! "Free" means they made me pay the taxes on it :-( |
 |
| The roasted garlic left over from the chicken night before last. |
 |
| Add the garlic, cheese, sour cream, lemon and seasonings... |
 |
| Process until well combined... |
 |
| I toasted it and made a sandwich! |
