A healthier, no-mayo twist on the traditional pimento cheese spread.  Greek yogurt and feta cheese are the stars of this show!

Greek Pimento Cheese - a twist on the traditional southern pimento cheese spread, using Greek yogurt and feta!In celebration of my sweet blogging friend, Nicole (Prevention, RD), and her upcoming addition to her family, a few other bloggers and I are gathering for a virtual baby shower.  Yay!  Happy baby shower day, Nicole!

Prevention RD Virtual Baby Shower

My contribution to Nicole's shower is this Greek Pimento Cheese, which is almost your traditional pimento cheese with a couple of changes.  One of our favorite local restaurants serves the best pimento cheese appetizer and it includes feta cheese.  I was trying to recreate their spread with a twist that I know Nicole would do -- substitute the mayo for Greek yogurt.  🙂

Greek Pimento Cheese - a twist on the traditional southern pimento cheese spread, using Greek yogurt and feta!To make a pretty display for any gathering, place the prepared dip into a small bowl, pressing it tight, then invert it onto a pretty plate.  Surround the pretty mound with pita chips and you have yourself a nice and pretty appetizer.

Greek Pimento Cheese - a twist on the traditional southern pimento cheese spread, using Greek yogurt and feta!For best results, make sure you refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving.  This will last 5 days the fridge, so feel free to make it ahead of time!

Thank you, Kim, for hosting Nicole's baby shower!  Click here to see a round up of the other bloggers' recipes!
