Shrimp Ball

Easiest recipe in the world. I'm serious. This took all of 5 minutes to make. I think it took longer for the cream cheese to soften then to do this recipe.

I've made this recipe before but never posted it. The DadUnit made it for Christmas in 2001 and it's been on a rotation for Sunday dinners.

Shrimp Ball
Serves a lot

12 ounces small shrimp, rinsed
8 oz cream cheese, softened
6 oz crab meat (If you use the canned crab meat drain it first)
2 c ketchup
2 tsp Horseradish sauce (or more if you like it spicier)
juice of 1/2 lemon
2 tsp Worcestershire sauce

Mix the shrimp, cream cheese, and crab meat together.  Form into a ball. I often put plastic wrap in a round bowl and put the mixture in the bowl.  Chill it so it's firm.

Mix the ketchup, horseradish, lemon and W sauce together.  Spread over the ball.

Serve with wheat thins or other crackers.
