First, mea culpa for the lack of posts this week. Things are out of control crazy when it comes to the schedule around here lately. I know that sounds like the adult version of “The dog ate my homework,” but it’s true.
At any rate, in keeping with the theme of the harried schedule I wanted to share an appetizer that can literally be prepared in 30 seconds. I keep the ingredients on hand at all times in the event of last-minute guests.
The photograph below, which I found on the Internet because I honestly don’t have a spare 30 seconds right now, demonstrates its significant drawback – It looks disgusting. However, I promise you that anyone who gets beyond the appearance will love it. Here’s the recipe:
1 brick of cream cheese
½ jar of pepper jelly
Step One: Put brick of cream cheese on a serving plate (preferably one more attractive than the aluminum tin pictured here).
Step Two: Cover with pepper jelly.
Viola!
To dress it up I sprinkle slivered almonds over the top of it, although sadly, that's somewhat akin to putting lipstick on a pig.
