BACON AND DILL PICKLE CHEESE BALL

Set this cheese ball out at a party and it will disappear like magic before your eyes. I like to serve it with plain potato chips or real dill pickle-flavored potato chips instead of the artificially flavored ones. Crackers and raw veggies work too.

BACON DILL CHEESE BALL

This is a great spread. I got it originally from organizedhome.com, but have modified it (because studding a cheese ball with almonds to make it look like a pine cone definitely gets the wow factor, but is a pain in the patootie!). Also, this tastes really yummy in tea sandwiches, spread thinly between thin slices of hearty bread.
