A friend shared this appetizer with me, and I've made it often over the years. Leftovers keep well in the refrigerator and can be reheated or served cold. Ingredients:
1/2 cup chopped pecans |
2 tablespoons butter |
1 package (8 ounces) cream cheese, softened |
2 teaspoons milk |
1/2 cup sour cream |
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder |
1/4 teaspoon pepper |
1 package (3 ounces) dried beef, finely chopped |
1 small onion, grated |
1/4 cup chopped green pepper |
assorted crackers or pita chips |
Directions:
1. In a small skillet, saute pecans in butter until toasted; set aside. In a small bowl, beat cream cheese and milk until smooth. Add the sour cream, garlic powder and pepper; mix well. Stir in the beef, onion and green pepper.
2. Spoon into a greased shallow 3-cup baking dish. Sprinkle with toasted pecans. Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 15-20 minutes or until heated through. Serve with crackers or pita chips. Yield: 2 cups.
