Bacon Pimento Cheese Dip
Sharp, Spicy, Smoky, and Ready in 40 Minutes
Pimento cheese is already perfect. Then someone added bacon and jalapeño, and now here we are. This baked dip mixes crispy Jones Dairy Farm Dry Aged Bacon with sharp cheddar, pepper jack, cream cheese, diced pimentos, fresh jalapeño, and scallions into a casserole that bakes until bubbly and golden. Gluten-free, serves eight, and works as a dip, a spread, or a reason to put crackers on the table.

- 1 cup gluten free mayonnaise
- 4 oz cream cheese
- 2 jalapeño peppers, seeded and minced
- 2-3 scallions, diced
- 2 cups extra sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
- 2 cups pepper jack cheese, shredded
- salt and pepper, to taste

Evenly spread the mixture in a 2-quart casserole dish. Bake for 25 minutes or until cheese is completely melted and bubbly.
