Garden Ranch Cheese Ball is an easy cream cheese ball loaded with fresh cheese, seasonings & packed with chips. Great for parties- mmm!

Chips are pretty tasty which prompted me to do what I love to do- make them into a recipe to share. We have community Days coming up this weekend. That means big gathering & I, as the chief’s wife- need to bring some food. I’m not one to bring new recipes that I have not tried before- so I did a little trial before hand to be sure it was “share worthy”. I created this Garden Ranch Cheese Ball & I have to say- I’m pretty impressed with myself. I had never made a cheese ball before so I sort of added & created on the fly.

Garden Ranch Cheese Ball

I really enjoyed taking a little bit of the cheese ball & adding it to another Garden Ranch chip. Oh so tasty.

You can just see all the seasonings & flavors in there. Plus this was SO SIMPLE. I can’t figure out why this was my first one. It won’t be my last.

We will be making this for every football party this year for sure.

You really have to give this a try. We are big on the snack “football” foods in this house. My late mother-in-law was the queen of party food. I have to carry on that fun for the hubs & this is just one recipe to help do that. I think she would love it & would be so proud of me for creating something so good yet easy to make.
