Cheese Ball

This post is part of our July Top 5.  Check out the rest of the best here.

One of the foods we had at our mom's party was cheese balls. Our mom has been making cheese balls for a long time. We take them to parties and family gatherings. I am not allowed to show up to a family gathering with Handsome Husband's family without a cheese ball. And they are so simple to make!

Cheese Ball

2 - 8oz blocks of cream cheese
1 cup shredded Colby Jack cheese
1/2 of 5 oz jar dried beef
6 green onions
1 Tbsp season salt or some other seasoning

Set cream cheese out to soften. Chop dried beef into small pieces. Cut up the green part of the green onions. (I use scissors to cut them up. I also plant the bottom that's left and then just cut the green part off when I need more.) In your kitchenaid mixer bowl, add all ingredients and mix using the whisk attachment. Or you could mix it with a spoon or your hand. After its mixed, separate it into 3 balls. Wrap each ball with plastic wrap and place in the refrigerator to chill for about an hour. Serve with crackers.

  3. oh my, this sounds delicious (minus the meat, I'm a vegetarian). It's perfect timing - I am making a meal and needed something to go with it. We love our cheese and crackers around here! Kim @ Pouring Down Like Rain. Linking with What I am Eating today.
