  • Step 5: Finely chop pecans and parsley and mix.

  • Step 6: Sprinkle enough of the nut/parsley mix onto a serving plate.

  • Step 7: Remove the top plastic wrap and lift the cheese ball out with the plastic "handles" and flip over flat side down on to the nut mixture.

  • Step 8: Remove the rest of the plastic from cheese ball.

  • Step 9: Using your hands to sprinkle, lightly press the remaining nut/parsley mix over the entire cheese ball patting it down to make sure it sticks.

  • Step 11: And enjoy!
