How to cook deliciously - Ham and Pimento Grilled Cheese Sandwich

1. Stage

In a medium bowl, stir cream cheese, mayonnaise, garlic powder, onion powder, and cayenne until smooth. Add cheddar and pimento and stir to combine. Season with salt and pepper to taste, if necessary.

2. Stage

Brush butter on one side of each slice of Sara Lee Honey Wheat Bread. Flip bread over and generously spread pimento cheese (about ½ cup per slice) on other side of each slice. Top half of the slices with ham. Close the sandwich with the remaining halves.
