- 1 tablespoon Apple cider vinegar
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Onion powder

Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the dairy-free cheddar cheese shreds and vegan mayonnaise. Mix well using a spatula or a wooden spoon until the cheese shreds are evenly coated with mayonnaise.
Add the diced pimentos to the mixture. Stir gently to incorporate them evenly throughout the mixture.
Pour in the apple cider vinegar and mix until fully combined. This will add a slight tanginess to the spread.

Mix all the ingredients thoroughly until the spices and seasonings are well distributed, creating a uniform spread.
Transfer the pimento cheese spread to a serving dish or store it in an airtight container if not serving immediately.
For best results, refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving to allow flavors to meld.
