    My favorite cheeseball is: 4 8oz blocks cream cheese - softened. 6 packages Buddig corn beef or Buddig Beef - chopped in small pieces. 1 bunch green onions - chopped. 1 Tbsp Accent 2 Tbsp Worcestershire Sauce. You can adjust the seasoning to your taste. Mix everything together and shape into a ball. I put some of the beef in the cheese ball and then cover the entire cheeseball with the chopped beef.

    I have a tip for the meatballs, buy tortilla chip scoops,line the inside with lettuce, drop in the meatball,top with graded cheese. ( The lettuce serves as a moisture barrier so the chips won't get soggy )

    I made a happy mistake years ago when I first made the meatballs. I used an asian chile sauce instead of the heinz. I love it so much more! It is spicy, but so delicious!

    We use red currant jelly with mustard! But the cranberry sauce would be a great substitution with hot dogs, little smokies, smoked sausage or meatballs!

    I make a simple cheeseball. It is customizable. I have made it with ham, bacon and roast beef and they were all good. Our 2 favorites are the bacon bits and the ham.
    16 oz cream cheese
    2 cups shredded cheddar
    2 Tbsps Worchestershire sauce
    1 tsp garlic powder
    1 cup chopped ham, chopped roast beef or real bacon bits
    3 finely chopped green onions

  • @rachelm1812
    @rachelm1812 3 роки тому +3

    Chili sauce and cranberry….may try that with chicken! Normally use cranberry, onion soup mix and Catalina dressing…. Def doing it with meatballs soon!
    Never had rotel dip with cream cheese. We use velveta, rotel and cooked, crumbled brfst sausage.
    That plant actually does better when u let it slightly dry out and then water it. I’ve had mine for years, replanted and broke them apart and they continue to grow. Loved thru 2 hurricanes and snow!

    I use that rotel dip in stuffed peppers. I pre- cook the peppers so they are a little soft and then put in the meat mixture and bake a little longer until the pepper and meat is hot. In fact I made this for dinner today.

    I've made cheese balls using cream cheese a top lemon juice, 1 can deviled ham spread and a dash of worchestershire sauce and 1/2 envelope onion soup mix. Add 1/2 cup shredded cheese, roll into ball and wrap in wax paper and refrigerate for an hour. Before serving, roll in finely crushed walnuts.

    Thanks Mandy for the great recipes for my New Years celebration. I have never had those meatballs even though this recipe has been around for years so I am going to make them with the chili sauce first. I love cranberry anything, so I am making Baked Brie with Cranberry Sauce over the top and a Shrimp Ring That is my snacks for ringing in 2022. I am planning a early dinner of Ribeye Steak, Au-gratin Potatoes, and a green veggie, so I am keeping the snacks to a minimum. I am also making Eggnog Ice Cream. It’s 2 ingredients, a premium Eggnog, the thick kind , and Heavy Whipping Cream, you can add sugar if you want, it was sweet enough for me. Just put it in your Ice Cream maker and proceed as usual. Merry Christmas!❤️

Gives you 2 meats at a party with a different flavor. Great video.

    I make those meatballs for dinner. I have used the cranberry sauce for a long time now. I don't eat grape jelly often and we'd end up with a half container in the fridge forever. So I really liked how I could just use one can and not have any left over. I use two jars of chili sauce and I have used homemade and frozen meatballs. I serve it over rice with broccoli. It's a great, hearty, and warming dinner!
