    List of Ingredients




    1/2 pound of grated sharp cheddar cheese
    3/4 cup of pecans, toasted and chopped (finely, if not using processor)
    1 tablespoon Vidalia onion, minced
    2 tablespoons milk
    1/8 teaspoon black pepper
    Dash of cayenne pepper
    1/3 cup mayonnaise
    Strawberry preserves

    Recipe



    1.Place cheese, milk and mayonnaise in a large food processor bowl. Process for about 20-30 seconds or until mayonnaise is mixed well with the cheese. If you need to add a little more mayonnaise, do so at this time.

    2. Add pecans and Vidalia onion. Process until pecans and onion are in small pieces. If you want more texture, put the chopped pecans and onion in after you remove from the food processor.

    3. Mound on a serving platter and make an indentation in the center. Fill the center with strawberry preserves. Serve with an assortment of good crackers.

    4. You can make this in advance and place the cheese mixture in a bowl wrapped with Saran Wrap or mold it into shape and then unmold when you are ready to serve. Add the jam on top. Serves 6-plus as an appetizer.
