pimento cheese bread
(1 rating)
I love pimento cheese spread, which is very popular in the South. However, this receipe is for bread and I found in in a recipe pamphlet "Series No. 3 "Foods Men Hurry Home For" with a Gold Metal Silverware coupon, which expired SEPTEMBER 1, 1936. I have modernized the receipe only to fit currant products available (included the original ingredient in).
