SWEET & SAVORY CHEESE BALL
When I first got this recipe from a friend of mine I thought it was going to be gross, but when I tasted it, I was blown away. Who would think that a cheese ball with pineapple and olives, onions and bell pepper would be so amazingly good? This is super easy to make and put together. The flavors get better if left to sit...

SWEET CREAM CHEESE BALL
I haven't made the recipe myself yet, but I had it at Thanskgiving and it was very good. It seems pretty quick and easy to make-a sweet taste to it-to be used with chocolate graham crackers or something similar for dipping. Take the serving size lightly. Figure each person takes about 1tsp of the dip for their cracker-had a bunch left after Thanksgiving with about 30 people in attendance.
