So this isn’t the most low-fat appetizer, but I’m all about moderation!! This is an excellent addition to a dinner party. It has been a hit everywhere!
Festive Feta Cheese Ball
(taken from Taste of Home)
Ingredients
♦ 2 packages (8 ounces each) cream cheese, softened
♦ 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
♦ 2 teaspoons ranch salad dressing mix
♦ 1/4 cup shredded (NOT GRATED) parmesan cheese
♦ 1/4 cup crumbled cooked bacon
♦ 1/2 teaspoon dill weed
♦ Assorted crackers and veggies
Directions
In a large bowl, beat cream cheese until fluffy. Add feta cheese and dressing mix; mix well. Shape into a ball. (Sometimes I refrigerate it a little before I roll)
In a small bowl, combine the Parmesan cheese, bacon and dill weed; roll cheese ball in Parmesan mixture. Wrap tightly in plastic wrap. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour or until firm. Serve with crackers or veggies! Yield: 2 cups.

Looks so YUMMY to me! Thanks for linking up..you were featured today! wohoo!
I am so making this…but tweaking a bit. I’ll use yogurt cheese instead of cream cheese, add a bit of buttermilk and grind some spices instead of the ranch dressing. No need to replace the bacon…that’s the appeal! I’m so excited, thanks for this!
Really wish I could pin this, but it wont let me.
