COCKTAIL CHEESE BALLS (1 point)

Serves: 30 people

Recipe Ingredients

8   Neufchatel cheese - softened
1/4   Plain nonfat yogurt
4   Lowfat cheddar cheese - shredded
4   Lowfat swiss cheese
2   Grated onion
2   Horseradish - prepared
1   Dijon mustard - Country-Style
1/4   Chopped fresh parsley

Recipe Instructions

Combine Nuefchatel cheese and yogurt in a large mixing

bowl; beat at medium speed of an electric mixer until

smooth. Add cheddar cheese and next 4 ingredients;

stir well. Cover and chill at least 1 hour. Shape

cheese mixture into a ball, and sprinkle with parsley.

Press parsley gently into cheese ball. Wrap cheese

ball in heavy-duty plastic wrap and chill. Serve with

assorted unsalted crackers. NOTE: Prepare this

crowd-pleasing appetizer up to a week ahead, if

necessary. If you make the cheese ball more than a day

ahead, wait until party time to add parsley. Yield 2

cups (about 39 calories per tablespoon).
