4 oz. softened Philadelphia Cream Cheese
6 oz. Best Maid Real Mayonnaise
8 oz. block of sharp cheddar cheese, shredded or in chunks to run through the food processor
4 oz. jar of diced pimentos, drained
Sandwich bread
I love using the food processor for this recipe. Put 4 oz. of cream cheese in the food processor and pulse a few times. Add the mayonnaise and pulse a few times. Scrape down the sides if necessary. Add the chunks of cheese and pulse and then blend until the cheese is chopped and mixed in with the mayonnaise and cream cheese. Remove mixture from the food processor into a bowl and stir in the drained pimentos. Refrigerate until you’re ready to spread on your favorite bread. Refrigerate any leftovers.


Her friends call her “Southern Belle.” But with three young children, she’s called “mom” more than anything these days. Debbie started Dede’s Cajun Cuisine in the fall of 2011 after catering a Southern lunch for a funeral at her church. She knew she wanted to share her love of cooking, southern heritage, and specifically, Southern food with her friends and family. The challenge became how to juggle all of that with her first priority of being a mom. Dinner time is always that crazy part of the day when everyone is hungry and tired. Between kid activities, never-ending laundry and the day-to-day grind of life, there isn’t enough time to prepare a meal from scratch.
