ingredients
- 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened

directions
- I use a rolling pin to slightly crush the bag of vegetable soup mix before I open it.
- Mix it up a bit so when you measure it out you will get part of the seasonings and part of the vegetables.
- Mix cream cheese, cheddar cheese, jack cheese, Swiss cheese, soup mix, onion, red pepper, Worcestershire sauce, lime juice and ground red pepper.
- Form cheese mixture into 2 balls and roll in ground almonds (or pecans) and press into ball to coat it well.
- Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight to allow flavors to blend.
- This cheese ball will freeze well if desired.
- Flavors are best if served at room temperature.
- Serve with your favorite assortment of crackers.
- This cheese ball makes a great filling for Jalapeno poppers.
