I received this recipe from a friend at work. Love this recipe because it is delicious and works up in a few minutes. Just the right touch of sweet vs. savory. Cook time is actually refrigerator time.

1 (8 ounce) can crushed pineapple, drained
2 cups finely chopped pecans, divided into two one cup portions

2 teaspoons seasoning salt (I use Lawry's)

Mix all the ingredients, using only 1 cup of the pecans listed and form into a ball.
2
Reserve 2nd cup of pecans for topping.
3

This is our all-time favorite cheese ball recipe! My aunt introduced it to our family 25 or 30 years ago, and it's been a holiday staple ever since. It has the perfect blend of savory with a hint of sweetness. Glad to find it here!

I have been making this for years. I usually leave out the green pepper, personal taste, and add a dash or 2 of red pepper flakes. It adds just the right amount of zest.
