Nancy’s Cheese and Nut Ring
Ingredients
- 8 ounces extra sharp white cheddar cheese see Notes
- 1/3 cup pecans chopped
- 1/3 cup mayonnaise
- 1/2 small onion finely chopped
- 1/8 to 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper or to taste
- 1/2 cup strawberry raspberry or apricot preserves
- Serve with crackers
Instructions
- Grate cheese in a food processor or by hand.
- In a medium bowl, mix together cheese, pecans, mayonnaise, onion, and cayenne pepper. Mixture should just bind together – add additional mayonnaise if needed.
- Place a small bowl in the middle of a plate. Form a ring around the bowl with the cheese and nut mixture.
- Place preserves in bowl just before serving. Serve with crackers.
Notes
* I do not recommend using pre-shredded cheese as a shortcut. Take a few minutes to grate your cheese.
