Cheese Ball


Pam and I had a wonderful time cooking together over Thanksgiving, so you will benefit from all the new recipes we decided to inflict upon our families! Our family tradition is to always have a bunch of appetizers in the early afternoon to hold us over until the turkey is done. Pam found this yummy cheese ball recipe to share, which was a hit! With all the holiday parties coming up I thought many of you might like to give this a try. This was a hit with everyone that day and my kids continued to eat it the next few days until it was gone. Enjoy, we did!


Yummy Cheese Ballhttp://www.sisterscafe.blogspot.com/
4 (8-oz) squares of cream cheese, softened
1 Tbsp onion salt (I added 3/4 Tbsp onion powder and 1/4 Tbsp salt)
1 Tbsp garlic salt
1/4 tsp. pepper
2 tsp. dried parsley
2 cups grated cheddar cheese
chopped pecans

Set the cream cheese out on the counter well in advance, so it is soft and easy to mix.
Mix the cream cheese, onion salt, garlic salt, pepper, and parsley.
Then add the grated cheese. After it is mixed well, form into 4-5 balls and roll in chopped pecans.

Asian Chicken Lettuce Wraps

I am always looking for fast, easy and nutritious meals for my busy weeknight meals.  These wraps have become one of our family favorites.  We serve these with a side of wontons or potstickers to complete the meal. The filling can be made ahead of time and reheated if your day is extra busy. Bibb lettuce is our favorite, but feel free to use iceberg or even romaine for this dish. I hope you enjoy these as much as we do!

Bakery style Strawberry Muffins

New recipe! Can you even believe it?! Kirsti and I decided we need to get back in the habit of sharing our favorite recipes by sharing at least one a month so here you go:   I’m starting off with these scrumptious strawberry muffins. Extra large and fluffy, these muffins are bursting with strawberry bits and topped with the most delicious strawberry glaze. If you end up with extra glaze, go ahead and drizzle some extra.  No judgement here :)   Even if you already love the previous strawberry muffins on our blog, you need to try these- they are the only ones I'll be making from here on out.  They're that good!

Scrumptious Sugar Cookies

Sugar cookies are one of my favorite things to make with the kids! It's tradition to make them for a few different Holidays including Valentine's Day. While decorating is the usually the main purpose in making these, over the years I have tweaked the cookie recipe and frosting to make them absolutely scrumptious as well! So much yummier that buying a store-bought mix and canned frosting.  I would even be so bold as to say I think they are every bit as good, if not better, than Swig and Crumble! Give them a try and see if you agree.   My Scrumptious Sugar Cookie Frosting is an ultra creamy, cream cheese frosting with a few extra additions that put it over the top! Sour Cream adds to the creaminess and takes the sweetness down a notch.  The frosting is still plenty sweet but not sickeningly so.  Butter Vanilla Emulsion is my other secret weapon that really elevates the flavor of this frosting! It can be found on Amazon, or in a craft store like Michaels,  but...
