Ingredients:
  • 1 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons jalapeño juice from 1 jar (12 oz) Old El Paso™ Hot Jalapeño Slices
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 2 teaspoons soy sauce
  • 2 teaspoons lemon juice
  • 16 oz freshly grated extra-sharp cheddar cheese (4 cups)
  • 4 oz freshly grated Colby cheese (1 cup)
  • 1 jar (4 oz) diced pimientos, drained
  • 3 green onions, thinly sliced
  • 2 tablespoons chopped jalapeño slices from 1 jar (12 oz) Old El Paso™ Hot Jalapeño Slices
  • Crackers, as desired
Instructions:
  • In a large bowl, combine mayonnaise, pickled jalapeño juice, mustard, soy sauce, and lemon juice. Mix with an electric mixer on low speed for 5 to 10 seconds until well combined.
  • Combine the cheeses and beat on medium speed for 15 to 30 seconds until well mixed. Scrape the bowl and continue beating for 2 to 4 minutes, or until the cheese mixture is creamy and easy to spread.
