[recipe] Holiday Cheese Ball ~ lacto-ovo

[Guest guest]

This is really good and has a flavor way better than any

of those store-bought cheese ball items you find

during the holidays. I sure would enjoy a

recipe for a port wine cheese ball if anyone has a

tried and true version of that. I also have one that

has a tex-mex flare, but will have to look it up in

my recipe index cards as I don't think I have ever

typed it to the computer yet.

 

Holiday Cheese Ball

 

2 packages (8 oz each) cream cheese, softened

2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese

1 Tbs finely chopped onion

1 Tbs diced pimentos

1 Tbs diced green pepper

2 tsp vegetarian Worcestershire sauce

1 tsp lime juice

Chopped pecans, toasted

Assorted crackers

 

In a mixing bowl combine the first seven ingredients;

mix well. Form into two balls and roll in the toasted

pecans. Cover and chill. Remove from the refrigerator

15 minutes before serving. Serve with assorted crackers.

Yield: 2 cheese balls ( about 1 1/2 cups each)
