Herbed Beef Cheeseball

Herby, beefy, cheesy........sooooooooooooooooooo yummy!

Today is National Cheeseball Day but we are celebrating it at work tomorrow with Cheeseballs and Bingo!  Hey....it is called the Fun Committee afterall.  :)

Here's the yummy, heavenly goodness that I created.



Ingredients:
1 pkg of cream cheese, room temperature
1 pkg of dried, chipped beef, diced
2 Tbsp Spinach & Herb Seasoning



Combine thoroughly.  To form into a ball, wet your hands and scoop up all of the cheese mixture.  This keeps your hands relatively clean and allows you to form the ball easily.  Refrigerate for at least 1 hour.  Enjoy with your favorite crackers.

Happy cooking!

Bountiful Pepperoni Bites

I made these for a party and they were oh so good.  They have a great pizza flavor and I made a batch of the Mama Mia Marinara to use as a dipping sauce.

Ingredients:
1 package Bountiful Beer Bread Mix
12 oz. beer (your choice, we used Miller Lite)
1 packet of Warm Pizza Dip Mix
1/2 cup chopped pepperoni (add more if you desire)
2 Tbsp. melted butter
Grated parmesan cheese

Dipping Sauce:
2 Tbsp. Mama Mia Marinara Sauce Mix
1 14 oz can of crushed tomatoes or tomato sauce

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Mix together first 4 ingredients until combined. Drop batter with a teaspoon (I used 2) into greased mini muffin tins. Brush with melted butter and sprinkle with parmesan cheese. Bake for 20 minutes. Serve with Mama Mia Marinara Dipping Sauce or your favorite sauce.

Makes approximately 48 mini muffins

Va Va Veggie Mini Quiches

Each month, our Team Mentor Team (I am in the 4th line) has a Success Event.  This is a team meeting and training opportunity.  It helps us to share our successes as well as learn how we can make our business better.  Each consultant makes a recipe and brings it to share.  This month, we were challenged to make a recipe with the new Spring/Summer product line.  I chose the Va Va Veggie Cheeseball mix and below is the resulting recipe from that choice.  I know you will love them because they are out of this world!  They would be perfect to serve as an appetizer or as a brunch item.  Great for little hands to pick up and enjoy as well.

Ingredients
2 pkgs  Mini Phyllo cups (15 in each package)
3 large eggs
2-3 Tbsps Milk (I used 1%)
1 packet Va Va Veggie Cheeseball Mix
1/4 c. shredded cheese (your choice, use what you have!)
Chopped chives for garnish (optional)

Place your mini phyllo cups in a mini muffin tin or on a baking sheet.  Be sure to inspect them for holes as your filling will leak out.  I used them anyway, I just was mindful that they would leak.

Mix together the next 3 ingredients and spoon into the phyllo cups.  Sprinkle each cup with a small amount of cheese and place in the over.  Bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes or until set.  Remove from the oven and place on a serving plate or tray.  Sprinkle with chopped/snipped chives for garnish.
