This is my entry for Hellmann’s Summer Picnic Challenge. I combined my love of Muffulettas and Pimento Cheese into one insanely delicious mashup! Use it as a spread with crostini or crackers, as a dip with crudite, pile it into mini slider buns or spread into tortillas and slice them into roll ups. The possibilities are endless and so dang delicious!
Spicy Muffuletta Pimento Cheese
1 cup cubed ham
½ cup mixed olives, well drained
½ cup jarred giardiniera (mixed pickled vegetables)
2 Tablespoons fresh parsley
½ cup Hellmann's Spicy Mayonnaise Dressing
3 cups finely shredded provolone cheese
Place the ham, olives, giardiniera and parsley in a mini food processor and pulse until very finely minced. Pour the mixture into a large mixing bowl and stir in the Hellmann's Spicy Mayonnaise Dressing and shredded cheese. Stir until evenly combined.
