Time 15m

Yield 3 cups

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 lb cheddar cheese, shredded
3 ounces cream cheese
3 tablespoons mayonnaise
1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 dash onion salt
1 dash garlic salt
1 dash celery salt
1/4 cup green olives, chopped
3 tablespoons minced dried beef
3 tablespoons fresh parsley

Steps:

  • Combine, cheeses, mayonnaise, worcestershire sauce, and salts. Blend until smooth. If too stiff add a bit more mayonaise. Add olives and shape into ball. Combine dried beef and fresh parsley and roll ball in the mixture. Cover with plastic wrap and chill. For a difference you can roll in crushed walnuts or pecans.
  • Serve with crackers.
  • Note - this is best with freshly grated cheese - not the package of pre-shredded stuff, the moisture content is needed.
