Similar to other cheese ball recipes, yet different! Our family has this every year as a prelude to Thanksgiving dinner, along with a relish tray, to use up those last few minutes while the turkey’s browning. Double it and freeze one for New Year’s! Serve with an array of crackers.

- 4 ounces sharp Cheddar cheese
- 2 ounces crumbled blue cheese

In a food processor, mix the cream cheese, Cheddar cheese, blue cheese, onion, garlic, and Worcestershire sauce. Process until well blended. Add olives, and pulse into small chunks.
