Andrea Bolden from Unionville, Tennessee writes, With its colorful flecks of green onion and pimiento, this cheese ball is great as a Christmas or New Year's appetizer. It can be made with fat-free cheeses without sacrificing the zesty Italian taste. Ingredients:
1 package (8 ounces) cream cheese, softened |
1 cup (4 ounces) shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese |
1/2 cup chopped green onions |
1 jar (2 ounces) diced pimientos, drained |
1 teaspoon italian seasoning |
1/2 teaspoon dried parsley flakes |
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper |
1 cup finely chopped walnuts |
toasted french bread slices, assorted crackers and/or fresh vegetables |
Directions:
1. In a small bowl, combine first seven ingredients. Cover and refrigerate 30 minutes. 2. Shape into a ball; roll in walnuts. Cover and refrigerate overnight. 3. Serve with toasted French bread slices, crackers and/or vegetables. Yield: 1 cheese ball. |
