Scalora's Veggie Cheese Ball

• 16 oz cream cheese
• 1/2 cup finely diced green bell peppers
• 1/2 cup finely diced red bell peppers
• 1/2 cup coarsely grated or shredded carrots
• 1/2 cup finely diced celery
• 1/4 cup diced green onions
• 1/4 cup finely diced yellow or white onion or 2 Tbsp dry onion flakes
• 1 tsp salt
• 1 tsp Mrs Dash, Lawry's or other seasoning mix
• 1 tsp garlic powder
• 2 tsp Worcestershire sauce
• 1/4 cup sliced almonds

Amounts are approximate. You can omit a few of the vegetable ingredients if you do not have them on hand. Warm cream cheese until it is soft enough to mix with a strong spoon or potato masher by either leaving it out of the fridge for a few hours or warming in the microwave. Mix everything except sliced almonds in a bowl. Form into a ball shape and roll in sliced almonds. Great for crackers or bagels.
