Mary Beth's Mystery Spread
Before you read further and dismiss this based upon the first ingredient, let me tell you that this has been a huge hit at many gatherings. Some partygoers who have tried a small bit just to be polite have ended up wanting to just take the whole platter and escape with it. It has a very interesting and yummy flavor.
2 small cans tuna, drained (or use two bags)
8oz cream cheese, softened
¼ tsp. liquid smoke
1 tsp. creamed horseradish
1 T. onion, very finely chopped
1 T. lemon juice
GARNISH:
½ cup chopped pecans or ¼ cup chopped parsley
Mix the first six ingredients together. (I do it in the food processor). Put into a bowl and allow to chill and solidify. Form into a log or ball and roll in either the finely chopped pecans or parsley. Serve with crackers or toast points.
