Pineapple Pecan Cheeseball

I love making appetizers and especially love making them for Sunday football games! This is a great party dish for your next big tailgate or gathering.  I especially liked the fresh bright flavor the pineapple brings out in this tasty cheeseball!  I found this recipe on Pinterest and changed it just slightly by mixing all of the pecans throughout the cheese mixture and not rolling the outside of the ball in the pecans as I like the nuts all throughout,  not just on the outside.

INGREDIENTS
1 (8 ounce) package of cream cheese
1/4 cup green pepper (any color would be fine) finely chopped
1/4 cup scallions, finely chopped
1 8-ounce can of crushed pineapple, drained
Pinch of salt
2 cups chopped pecans

DIRECTIONS
In a large mixing bowl, combine all of the ingredients mixing well.  Form into a ball, wrap in plastic wrap and place in the fridge to chill for several hours or overnight to firm. Serve with assorted crackers.

Enjoy!
