Ingredients
2 packages of softened and room temperature cream cheese

1 tsp lemon pepper seasoning
2 cups pecans, chopped nicely
Assorted crackers for serving
How to Make Heavenly Pineapple Cheeseball
FIRST STEP:
In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese until it is smooth.
SECOND STEP:
Gently fold in the vegetables: add the chopped green onions and chopped green pepper.
Next, add the seasonings: mix in the seasoning salt and lemon pepper seasoning. Finally, add ½ cup chopped pecans and mix until well combined.
THIRD STEP:
Place this mixture on a sheet of plastic wrap, roll it up, and shape the cheese into a ball. Refrigerate overnight to allow the flavors to meld and the cheeseball to firm up.
FOURTH STEP:
Just before serving, roll the cheeseball into the remaining chopped pecans to coat it evenly. Set the ball onto the center of a plate and surround it with a variety of crackers.
Enjoy!
