|
1 small jar |
pimento-stuffed green olives |
|
1/2 cup |
soft butter |
|
2 cups |
finely grated cheddar cheese |
|
1 cup |
flour |
|
1 tsp |
paprika |
|
Blend butter with grated
cheddar. Mix flour with paprika. Add flour mixture slowly to
butter/cheddar mixture and blend thoroughly. Pinch off a small
piece of dough (a bit bigger than one of the olives) and roll it
into a ball. Press your thumb down into the dough to create an
indent. Place a pimento-olive into the indent and
carefully press the dough up and around the olive to completely
enclose it. Dust hands with flour if necessary. Repeat
until you run out of olives ... or dough! Place olive-balls on a
cookie sheet and freeze. The frozen balls can then be stored
in plastic bags until needed. Bake frozen at 400 degrees F for
about 15 minutes until golden.

pie-crust ... or frozen store-bought pie-crust. Spread
fillings onto pie-crust. Combine remaining
ingredients, stirring until smooth and pour over the filling mixture. Bake for
35 to 40 minutes or until an inserted knife comes out clean.
Let stand 5 minutes before serving.

in the oven until they begin to brown slightly. When cool,
transfer the peppers to a large jar. Combine the balance of ingredients

cover the peppers. This side-dish stores well in the refrigerator for
several days ... if it lasts that long!
