Ingredients

8 oz cream cheese
2 Tbsp milk
2 1/2 oz dried beef, shredded
1/4 tsp pepper
1/4 c green pepper, finely chopped
1/2 tsp salt
4 green onions and tops, chopped fine
1/2 tsp garlic salt
1/2 c sour cream
1/2 c chopped pecans
2 Tbsp butter

Steps:

1. Combine cheese and milk, mix well. Stir in beef, pepper, onion, and seasonings. Mix well and fold in sour cream. Spread in 8" pie plate. Heat pecans in butter, 2 T or so, and 1/2 t salt. Sprinkle over cheese. Bake at 350 degrees 20 min. Serve with crackers, sliced white bread, trimmed of crust and quartered, toasted crisp would also be good with this.

Tips:

Use fresh pecans. Fresh pecans have a sweeter, more delicate flavor than stale pecans. If you can't find fresh pecans, you can use frozen pecans, but be sure to thaw them completely before using.
Toast the pecans. Toasting the pecans brings out their flavor and makes them more fragrant. You can toast them in a skillet over medium heat, or in the oven at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 10-12 minutes.
Use a food processor or high-powered blender. This will help you achieve a smooth, creamy spread.
Don't over-process the spread. You want it to be smooth, but not so smooth that it loses its texture.
Add your favorite mix-ins. You can add chopped dried fruit, chocolate chips, or even bacon bits to your gala pecan spread. Get creative and have fun!

Conclusion:

Gala pecan spread is a delicious and versatile condiment that can be used on a variety of foods. It's perfect for spreading on sandwiches, crackers, or toast. It can also be used as a dip for fruit, vegetables, or chips. And it's even good enough to eat on its own! So next time you're looking for a new and exciting way to enjoy pecans, give gala pecan spread a try. You won't be disappointed.
