Pecan Cheddar Cheese Ring with Strawberry Preserves

Rosalynn Carter’s vintage appetizer recipe for a pecan and cheddar cheese ring with a slight hint of heat with strawberry preserves in the center served with crackers.


Though Husband is from Canada, he does have one brother who lives here in South Carolina too. Actually, he and his family live in the same town as we do.

Even though they only live about 10 miles away, we just don’t see them as often as we’d like. Which sucks because I really like them but that’s just the way life works sometimes.

Their kids are older than ours so I think that’s probably factored into how little we see them. Our lives still very much revolve around what our kids are doing. Every single family that we spend time with - literally all of our friends - are people whose kids play (or played) sports with our kids.

Anywho, we decided last year that we are going to do better at spending time together so we spent Easter together this year! Which was great for both our families. I lost my dad and my sister-in-law, Deb, lost her mom last year so all of our family holidays could use some changing up.


OK, enough with my family sagas, let’s get to the food!

While we were visiting and getting the food ready for Easter dinner, Deb set out an appetizer that I couldn’t quite identify but was instantly intrigued by!

I could tell it was some sort of cheese spread and I could see pecans (great start so far!) and it looked like there was strawberry preserves all around it… what in the world kind of cheese sorcery was this?! Note: Deb served hers as a cheese log instead of a ring so she just spooned the preserves around the outside.

I grabbed a cracker then spooned some cheese mixture onto it while scooping a little smear of preserves too, popped it in my mouth then absolutely fell in love! Like, seriously, fell in love!
