BACON-OLIVE CHEESE BALL



Bacon-Olive Cheese Ball image

My husband had to take a bacon dish to work for a luncheon, so I took my favorite cheese ball recipe and added bacon and a few other ingredients to it. It was a hit at the luncheon and was gone in a few minutes. I didn't measure the ingredients as I made the cheese ball, so I am "guesstimating" some of these ingredients. As for the seasonings, you can change them to your taste preference, but I would not recommend adding anything else with salt because of the olives and bacon that are already in the recipe.

Number Of Ingredients 7

8 ounce(s) cream cheese, room temperature
1 cup(s) salad olives with pimentos
2 or 3 dash(es) onion powder
2 or 3 dash(es) cajun seasoning
2/3 - 3/4 cup(s) real bacon pieces
2/3 - 1 cup(s) shredded cheddar cheese
1 cup(s) pecan pieces (finely chopped)

Steps:

  • In food processor, chop the olives and pimentos. Put into a bowl and set aside.
  • Place the cream cheese, onion powder and cajun seasoning into the food processor and process until creamy. Remove to a mixing bowl.
  • Add the olives, bacon pieces, and shredded cheese to the cream cheese mixture. Mix all ingredients thoroughly with a spoon. Form mixture into a ball. (It may be too soft to make the ball at this point, but do the best you can. You will be able to handle it better after the next step)
  • Wrap the "ball" in a sheet of wax paper and put into the freezer for approx 20 minutes.
  • Remove the ball from the freezer, reshape the ball and roll in pecan pieces until covered. Refrigerate in airtight container. Remove from refrigerator approx 1 hour before serving. Serve with Club, Ritz, or your favorite cracker.
