Cheese Ball Delight with Pineapple

Ingredients

• 8 oz cream cheese, softened
• 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
• 1/2 cup chopped pecans (or walnuts)
• 1/2 cup crushed pineapple, drained
• 1 tbsp green onions, finely chopped
• 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
• 1 tsp garlic powder
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 1/4 tsp black pepper
• 1/4 cup finely chopped fresh parsley (for garnish)

Instructions

1. In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, shredded cheddar cheese, chopped green onions, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix everything together until well combined.
2. Add in the drained crushed pineapple and mix gently to combine. Be careful not to overmix to avoid breaking down the pineapple too much.
3. Shape the mixture into a ball, using your hands or a spoon.
4. Roll the cheese ball in the chopped pecans or walnuts, pressing lightly so they adhere to the ball.
5. Garnish the cheese ball with finely chopped fresh parsley for a fresh pop of color and flavor.
6. Wrap the cheese ball in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to let the flavors meld and for the ball to firm up.
7. Serve with crackers, sliced veggies, or bread as a delicious appetizer or snack! Enjoy!
