Prep Time
Ingredients
- 8 oz. cream cheese
- grated
- 1 tsp. ground black pepper
- 1 tbsp. bacon crumbles
- 1/2 tsp. onion powder
- 1/8 tsp. garlic powder
- 1/8 tsp. red pepper flakes
- 1/2 c. pumpkin seeds
- 1/2 c. pine nuts
Instructions
PrintIn a medium mixing bowl use a fork to mash all ingredients except pumpkin seeds and pine nuts.
Use a spatula to scrape the cheese mixture onto a large piece of cling wrap. Use your hands to mold the cheese into a ball inside of the wrap.
For best results, refrigerate the ball for an hour to firm it up.
Gently unmold the cling wrap from the ball and place it on a bed of the bacon, seed and nuts.
Roll the ball until every side is covered in the coating. If there are a few bare spots press nuts and seeds in gently to cover.
Serve with a variety of vegetables or flax crackers to dip.
