Pistachio Crusted Cheese Ball

Pinch me, because I really can’t believe Thanksgiving is next week!  I am sure everyone is busy finalizing their plans and menu.  We are doing the same over here, and dreaming of all the yummy food we will stuff ourselves with. 😉

I don’t know about you, but I love eating appetizers on Thanksgiving, especially cheesy ones. 😀   I first shared this cheese ball recipe last year, and it has become one of my family’s favorites.  It is a must-have at our home this Thanksgiving.  Isn’t it the best feeling, when the people you love not only enjoy your food, but request it?  If you are looking for a change from the same old cheese ball, this is your cheese ball.  It is truly unique, perfectly spreadable, and packed with flavor.  I hope you make it part of your Thanksgiving appetizer spread. 😀  Happy almost Thanksgiving!

I am super excited to share this at Fiesta Friday #146( Your co-hosts this week are me (yay!) and the lovely Petra @ Food Eat Love) and the Family Joy Blog Link Up Party!

    Oh yum! I’m sure I’d eat most of this myself! I’m saving this recipe and will buy cream cheese and pistachios just in case we get the munchies while playing Mexican Train over the Holiday week-end.

    I feel like Thanksgiving snuck up on me this year Antonia! We haven’t even started planning our meal yet. If you can believe it, I’ve never done appetizers on Thanksgiving. I’m loving what you did with the cheese ball- pistachios are my favorite 🙂
