Not having my grandmother's meat grinder, I quickly shred the cheese and add it to a few other ingredients to make the quickest, easiest, and most delicious pimento cheese I've ever tasted! This recipe is what we served to our customers. Many people think it contains goat cheese, but what you customarily find in restaurants is made from easy melt white american cheese, purchased thru. Turn pimiento cheese sandwich spread into a hot and spicy appetizer by adding chopped jalapeno pepper to the cheese mixture. Most Mexican cheese is made from cow's milk, although there are some varieties use goat's milk.
