Favorite Cheeseball & Another Award!

Another appetizer on our "Top 10" list. I haven't had many cheeseballs in my life but this one is my favorite. The trick to this recipe is having fairly soft cream cheese and very well drained crushed pineapple - otherwise the mixture will be so runny! Yup, that has happened to me one too many times!
"Pineapple Cheeseball"

1/2 cup crushed pineapple, drained well

8 oz. cream cheese, softened (not too softened or the cheeseball will be too liquidy)

1 tsp. Lawrys Seasoning Salt

1 tsp. Onion Salt

OR

1 stem of a green onion

1/2 cup red or green pepepr, chopped

DIRECTIONS:

Mix all ingredients together. Roll in chopped pecans. Chill 2 hours.

Now, for the award!

Cheeseballs make for a wonderful appy!

Here's a little hint I do when I need pineapple drained well... I place the pineapple in my potato ricer, works great ;-)
