0:00
- I have prepared our Easter meal, y'all.
0:03
And just to make sure people are not starving
0:08
before I serve it, I'm gonna make a little easy,
0:12
easy to do appetizer.
0:14
And I'm gonna use two eight-ounce packages of cream cheese,
0:20
one cup, excuse me, one cup of mayonnaise.
0:30
And I'm gonna use the electric hand mixer
0:39
because I don't like clumps of you know, cream cheese.
0:44
So, just gonna mix it up real quick.
0:48
I've got our cream cheese and our mayonnaise mixed together.
0:50
Now I'm gonna add one package of dry Italian dressing.
1:08
Y'all may have had a cheese ball very similar to this.
1:14
Gosh, I hadn't made that one in years.
1:16
It's been so long since I've made that.
1:22
with cream cheese naturally and regular cheese.
1:25
And then the dried beef.
1:29
So I'm gonna chop this
1:33
and add it to our cream cheese and mayonnaise mixture.
1:38
(slicing of the knife)
1:45
I don't want it in two small of pieces
1:50
cause I want you to be able to tell what you're
1:54
putting in your mouth.
1:58
This is such a good combination. When you go
2:01
to putting that Italian dressing in
2:06
- Don't stand right over cause it went
2:08
up my nose and it doesn't feel good.
2:13
All right, so I'm going to add some fresh parsley.
2:17
Vegetables. Vegetables.
2:20
So we're gonna do just a rough chop.
2:27
All right, I'm gonna, I'm gonna add about a third of a cup
2:30
of the fresh parsley and then I'm gonna mix these all
2:35
together. Gosh, it looks just like that cheese
2:39
ball that had some regular cheese in it.
2:45
Now basically you can put what you want to in this.
2:48
I'd like to add spring onions or green onions um,
2:54
because it just adds some color to it.
2:59
But this is really, really tasty for what it is.
3:03
All right, I have, I have cut my french bread
3:10
not all the way through, but enough that I could get in here
3:14
and hollow out my bread a little bit.
3:19
I'll pull this out and I'll go give it to the chickens
3:26
You want to have room to be able to put that filling in.
3:38
So I don't want to take out too much of the bread I want,
3:43
I want people to feel like they're eating a little
4:05
This is actually enough cream cheese to
4:08
fill three of these loaves, but
4:14
I think I'm just going to do the one,
4:19
and then see how it goes.
4:27
- (Eddie): I couldn't find small.
4:29
I couldn't find small ones.
4:31
- (Eddie): This is all I could find.
4:32
- Yeah, they've been picked over.
4:34
It's a holiday coming up. So
4:45
Yeah I mean we may have enough to do two this size Eddie
4:49
but I don't think we have enough to do three of these.
4:59
And I'm gonna pile it, I'm pretty good
5:01
because you know, we've got to
5:06
we've got to be able to fill that other hollow apart.
5:19
So this is kind of the way I feel.
5:27
I'll turn it around so y'all can see it.
5:44
So we're gonna wrap this in a plastic wrap.
5:58
And I'm gonna put it in the refrigerator
6:07
and then I'm gonna take it out when I'm ready to serve,
6:11
right before I'm ready to serve
6:13
and I'll cut it into like one inch pieces.
6:19
It's really, really good, y'all.
6:21
As simple as it is, it's really tasty.
6:28
No cook, which is great.
6:33
Y'all, it's almost time to serve.
6:39
Let me just figure out how I got this thing wrapped up.
6:47
And I'm not gonna wrap, unwrap it all the way because I'm
6:51
probably not gonna slice all of this at one time.
6:58
I'll come back and kind of slice it as we need it.
7:03
But see that little end piece, that's not even worth putting
7:07
out because there's not enough.
7:22
It almost looks like it could cert, could stand some more
7:25
stuffing, doesn't it?
7:27
So it's just a tasty little snack y'all for
7:32
everybody to munch on.
7:36
Wow. Grandmama is getting the rest pulled together.
7:43
Looks delicious, doesn't it Eddie?
7:46
- Would you help me eat some?
7:52
Oh and listen, I meant to tell y'all and I didn't, I forgot.
7:57
You noticed I didn't put any salt
7:59
in this at all because the
8:02
the meat is so salty and the pimento that we put in it
8:08
just, those two things contain a lot of salt.
8:10
So you, you certainly don't want salt it
8:13
but you could pepper it and that would add a flavor to it.
8:19
And don't forget to serve this with napkins
8:22
like cocktail napkins.
8:26
So I think everybody will love it.
8:29
It's simple. You can do it the day before.
8:35
So, I hope y'all have a wonderful Easter wonderful holiday
8:40
and I've just got one word for y'all.
8:44
- (singing) Here comes peter cotton tail,
8:48
I've been down the bunny trail.
8:51
- Well that's actually more than one word, isn't it?
8:53
Loving best dishes, y'all.
