Meet the Cook: Needing a quick appetizer one night when dinner was running late, I combined a few leftovers into this easy cheese ball. For variety, you can shape it into a log, or substitute favorite herbs for the pepper. My husband and I are the proud parents of two children, Kenton, 6, and Katie, 4. -Tamara Rickard, Bartlett, Tennessee Ingredients:
1 package (8 ounces) cream cheese, softened |
1 cup (4 ounces) finely shredded cheddar cheese |
1/2 teaspoon pepper |
1 cup finely chopped broccoli florets |
6 bacon strips, cooked and crumbled |
assorted crackers |
