The Ultimate Cheeseball

The flavor combination is one that will make your scratch your head and snub your nose at it.  Try it once and you'll find that you won't be able to keep yourself out of it!

The Ultimate Cheeseball  (Makes 2)                                        Printable Recipe

2 tablespoons diced onion
1 teaspoon garlic salt  (use garlic powder and a little bit of salt)
2 tablespoons diced green pepper
1 small can crushed pineapple, drained
2 - 8 ounce cream cheese, softened 
Approximately 2 cups chopped pecans


Pecans should be chopped small enough so there aren't chunky pieces left but not so small it is pulverized. Place onto a medium piece of wax paper.
 These 5 ingredients seem like an unlikely combo.
Mix together with a spoon or small mixer.
 Scoop half of the cream cheese mixture onto pecans.
 Using the wax paper to keep your hands clean, press the pecans into the cream cheese.
 Flip cheeseball.
Press more pecans into cream cheeseball until completely covered.  Without the wax paper use your hands to shape into a ball or disk shape.  Cover with plastic wrap and place into fridge.  Repeat with last half of cheese mixture.  Refrigerate overnight to allow flavors to blend.

Foolproof Hard-Boiled Eggs

Funny thing is that I called them hard-boiled but I don't actually boil the eggs to cook them.  If you want pretty little yellow yolks with no green edges on the yolks this is the way to do it.  

Foolproof Hard-Boiled Eggs

1 Dozen eggs (the fresher the eggs, the harder they are to peel)

Place eggs in a deep saucepan and cover with cold water by 1-1/2 inches.
 Bring to a boil that is really bubbling. Shut off heat. Cover and let sit for 10 minutes.
 Drain.
 Add ice and water to cool eggs. 
 Perfect!
