Directions:
In a bowl, mix together cream cheese, well drained pineapple, green pepper, onion, salt and ½ cup chopped walnuts until well combined. (I use my hands to mix it up.) Spoon cream cheese mixture onto a sheet of plastic wrap. Wrap in the plastic and shape into a ball. Place in freezer for 10 minutes until easy to handle. Remove from freezer, unwrap and press nuts down gently. (I put nuts on a plate and roll the ball in it while gently pressing down to make sure that nuts will stay on ball.) Cover and refrigerate overnight. Serve with crackers.
