Pimento cheese is probably the most famous sandwich spread in the south.

There is a reason it is one of the most loved sandwich spreads. The tangy creamy texture is perfect for spreading. We also love ham, tuna and bean spreads. Of course with a great sandwich, you need a delicious dip to go with the chips. We grow our own vegetables and you always need a delicious dip or spread for fresh veggies. Included are 200 family favorite sandwich spreads and dips.

Tailgating is huge in the south. Everyone has a favorite team and we always compete for the best recipes. While the grill is cooking your favorite meat, you need snacks and appetizers for the game. The wide variety of spreads and dips will meet any game day taste.

I love a snack of crackers and a creamy spread. I always keep snack spreads in the refrigerator for a quick snack.

They are quick to make and I usually have the ingredients on hand.
