It really is that simple. You may half the recipe by using an 8oz. block of Sharp Cheddar and a 2 oz. jar of Diced Pimentos. You might enjoy a sprinkling of Tony Chachere's Seasoning but I wouldn't add it to the bowl because the salt in it can then make it runny. Extra-Sharp is good, too, but always use a Sharp cheddar - and always buy the block and grate it yourself.
