Cheese Ball

This cheese ball is a classic. I grew up with this recipe and it was passed to me from my mom who got it from her mom. It’s a favorite of mine and one that I think you will love also. 

My Mom has been making this cheese ball for as long as I can remember. Even though it was served at every family gathering, we all still love it to this day. The cheese ball is a messy food to make though! You gotta get your hands in there to mix it all up. A spoon just doesn’t do it as well.

It’s easy to make, just throw your ingredients into a bowl and start mushing. Get everything mixed well, and then form it into a ball. Place your cheese ball on a plate and then roll it and coat it in your chopped beef. We always use Buddig brand beef.
