Not Quite Pimento Cheese Dip

I had the flu last week and let me tell you-  I. Will. Never. Not. Get. My. Flu. Shot. Again.  It was the worst feeling.  I couldn't think, my throat was killing me, my nose wouldn't stop running and I couldn't get comfortable.  It's been five days since it and I still don't feel like myself.  But this coming weekend has to be better than last (anything will be better than going throught that). 

Before I got sick, Tyler came up with this amazing cheese dip.  It's the kind of dip that you eat a few, then put it away, then you go back to the refrigerator for one more, and another, and another and before you know it you've eaten the entire bowl...what?! Yea that's what happened and I'm not ashamed to admit it. Try this recipe out, it is easy and definitely worth your time!
