CHEESE BALL (festive for Fall)
16oz cream cheese, room temp
2 cups cheddar cheese
3 tbsp minced onion
3 tbsp salsa
1 tsp ground cumin
2 cups nacho cheese chips, crumbled
top of 1 bell pepper for stem garnish
Combine ingredients; form into ball; place in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
Before serving, roll in crumbled nacho chips, add top of bell pepper.
Serve with chips, pretzels, or vegetables.
This is a great-tasting cheese ball. For a Thanksgiving theme, you can cut off the top of a green pepper and it makes it look like a pumpkin, since the nacho chips are "orange" in color. Dipping pretzels is especially good. Enjoy.
