Spicy Pimento Cheese Sandwiches with Avocado and Bacon

After tasting this sandwich in a tiny ‘lunch-only’ restaurant in my hometown (population 903), I had to try to imitate it. My husband loves this sandwich!

INGRIDIENT

4 slices bacon

1 (3 ounce) package cream cheese, at room temperature

1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese

1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese

DIRECTION

Step: 1

Place bacon into a skillet over medium heat, and cook until crisp. Remove, and drain on paper towels.

Step: 2

Place the cream cheese in a bowl, and beat until light and fluffy. Stir in the Cheddar cheese, Monterey Jack cheese, mayonnaise, salt, pepper, garlic powder, pimentos, onion, jalapeno, and cayenne pepper until well blended.
