Fresh Recipe: Chipotle Cheese Spread

This week on Fresh Tip Tuesday I made Chipotle Cheese Spread – Tupperware’s version of pimento cheese.  MAN is this YUMMY! It may be because I am in LOVE with Tupperware’s Southwest Chipotle Seasoning Blend. Or that I really LOVE cheese –  either way you have to try this recipe out.

I also shared some fun fresh tips about the origin of pimento cheese. For example, although pimento cheese is a southern staple for tea parties, showers, lunches and even as an app at the Masters, it was actually invented in New York State.  I know right?  In the early 1900’s Good Housekeeping shared one of the first recipes using cream cheese, pimentos, chives and mustard.  It wasn’t till around WWII when georgia farmers started growing their own pimentos that the southern delicacy we know today emerged.

I hope you enjoy this as much as I did!  Check out the live video and let me know what you want me to make the next time.
