Masters Pimento Cheese Sandwich Recipe

Happy Masters Sunday!

Forget the lush fairways, sparkling white sand bunkers and the sweet scent of azaleas. The true show stopper at Augusta National is the $1.50 pimento cheese sandwich! If you can’t make it to Augusta National, here’s how to make one at home.

What you’ll need:

3 cups shredded white cheddar cheese
2 cups shredded yellow sharp cheddar cheese
4 oz crumbled blue cheese
1 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
1 (4-oz) jar sliced pimentos, drained
1 cup light mayo
2 tbs Dijon mustard
1 loaf of white bread

Combine cheeses, pimentos, mayo and mustard in a food processor and process until smooth. Cover and chill. Spread on bread slices. Makes four sandwiches.
