Start by mixing well and forming it into a log or ball.
In a second step, roll in grated pecans (or any other nuts) and chopped parsley, if desired.
Lastly, when minced, a 5-ounce jar of dried beef equals 1 1/2 cups.
Notes
I love cheese dip as an appetizer - it's super delicious. The combination of melted cream cheese rolled in nuts and grated onion is delicious. This recipe is perfect for church potlucks.
