BlueBerry Salad

Blueberry Salad is one of my Nana's recipes that I have LOTS of memories of! Whenever we had a potluck, in particular, our Christmas gathering the day after Christmas we would get to enjoy blueberry salad! The recipe has always surprised me because while the name suggest blueberries, the Jello used is actually grape flavored. However, this is a delicious dish you will want to make for your next potluck too! 
Printable Recipe
Picture
These are the ingredients you will need, in addition to 2 cups of water. 
Picture
Start by boiling water and dissolving both packets of Jello.
Picture
Add pineapple (including juice) into the Jello
Picture
Also, the blueberry pie filling
Picture
Refrigerate the mixture for about 2 hours until congealed.
Picture
Now to make the topping, you will mix together sugar...
Picture
vanilla...
Picture
cream cheese...
Picture
and sour cream
Picture
Once the mixture is congealed, spread topping over the base. Add chopped nuts if you would like. ENJOY!

Cheese Ball

Tonight kicks off NFL Football, meaning a slew of appetizers are in order. This is "ole faithful" when it comes to appetizers! I personally think the cheese ball is the original appetizer! The recipe is so simple and makes enough to feed a crowd! 
Printable Recipe
Picture
The ingredients you will need are 2 blocks of cream cheese, a green pepper, onion, crushed pineapple (small can is sufficient), seasoning salt and chopped nuts. I used pecans, but you could use walnuts or even coat it in an herb like parsley! 
Picture
Add your blocks of cream cheese to the electric stand mixer
Picture
Add in pineapple
Picture
Green pepper. I diced them, but you could also finely chop them smaller
Picture
Add in onion
Picture
Seasoning salt goes in too!
Picture
Mix all the ingredients togethers
Picture
I like to split the cheese ball into 2, but you could always make one large on. Create a ball and wrap in plastic wrap.
Picture
Put cheese balls in the refrigerator to harden for about 2 hours. Roll cheese ball in chopped nuts and serve!

Yum Yum Salad

The name says it all for this recipe! It is literally "yum, yum." While this recipe says it's a "salad," it's much more of a dessert. This recipe is super easy to make, but make sure you leave plenty of time to refrigerate. 
Printable Recipe
Picture
The ingredients you will need are: chopped apples, sugar, crushed pineapple, chopped walnuts, lemon jello, cool whip and cream cheese. I accidentally bought chunk pineapple, but unless you REALLY like pineapple I would suggest crushed pineapple. 
Picture
Add sugar to crushed pineapple and bring to boil. Then set aside to cool. 
Picture
Mix together lemon jello and cream cheese. At this point you will definitely want to eat this all out of the bowl. Please refrain because the chunks of lemon cream cheese are an amazing surprise when eating yum yum salad! 
Picture
Picture
Mix together pineapple mixture and cream cheese mixture. Refrigerate until set, about 2 hours. 
Picture
Once congealed, it will look like this! 
Picture
Mix together apples, chopped nuts and cool whip into congealed mixture. Then refrigerate for another hour or so. 
Picture
Now you get to enjoy this deliciousness!!
