Christmas Eve


In the late '90's my husbands parents were running a guest house in Cape Town South Africa under Sudan Interior Mission. Christmas 1998 we as a family spent a wonderful time there with Dad and Mom. During our holiday we were invited to several of their friends homes for Christmas parties. Mom's friend Jan had made a cheese ball that had us all going back for more.
She had formed it into the shape of a tree and decorated it with little pieces of pimento, peppers and parsley, but as you can see the one I made for tonight is just formed into a ball.


Ingredients:
  • 1- 8oz container extra sharp cheddar cold pack cheese, room temperature
  • 1- 8 oz block cream cheese room temperature
  • 2 tbsp finely chopped pineapple
  • 1 tbsp green pepper
  • 1 tsp grated onion
  • 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/2 tsp lemon juice
  • parsley, nuts, pimento for decoration
Method:
  1. Beat together other cheeses until smooth.
  2. Add remaining ingredients and beat well.
  3. Shape and garnish to your liking. Serve with assorted crackers.

Each of us is the Inn Keeper who decides if there is room for Jesus.

From my home to yours,

Merry Christmas.
