Equipment

Instructions
- In a mixer with a paddle attachment, combine light cream cheese, light mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, adobo sauce, dill weed and pepper. Add in shredded cheeses and pimento.
- Mix well and scrape down sides of mixer bowl with a rubber spatula. Taste to see if you need to add a bit more adobo sauce, mustard or seasonings. Adding a minimal amount will not change the points value. Put in refrigerator for at least 3 hours.
