Asiago Cheese Ball

We were invited to a Halloween party and asked to bring a finger food to share.  Normally I would go the sweet route but this time I decided to make a savory snack.  I created this cheese ball out of a memory of one I sampled a year or so ago.  The recipe is simple but was a big hit with the adults at the party!













Asiago Cheese Ball

2 (8 oz)  packages cream cheese, softened to room temp.
1 wedge Asiago Cheese (approx. 5 oz), finely grated
3 triangles Laughing Cow Swiss Cheese
1/4 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp salt

Mix all ingredients together until well combined.  Scoop cheese onto plastic wrap or aluminum foil.  Shape into desired width and wrap.  Leave in the fridge overnight.  Unwrap and roll in nuts if desired.  To make a pumpkin, use a butter knife to make grooves and smooth the edges.  Top with a broccoli stalk.  Serve with crackers of your choice.  Enjoy!

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!

Chicken Salad Sandwiches with Fruit and Almonds

Chicken salad sandwiches seem to be the go to item for baby and bridal showers.  I wanted to make some for the baby shower, but had a dillema.   While I like the main components in the salad, I really do not like the taste of raw onions and celery.  However, I still wanted some crunch and flavor in the salad.

Best Ever Chocolate Chip Cookies

The name says it all. These cookies are my (and my husband's) favorite cookies! Not just your average chocolate chip cookies, these babies come out of the oven with a slightly crisp outside while still remaining soft on the inside. Use Ghiradelli Milk Chocolate Chips and you will have achieved chocolate chip cookie perfection!
