Mom's Cheese Ball

This is a lower carb version of my moms cheese ball she makes around holidays.

2-8oz bricks cream cheese
5 green onions-diced
2 small tomatoes-diced
4 oz ham (I used Hormel) diced
1/2 cup black olives-sliced or diced

Just let the cream cheese come to room temperature and mix in all the ingredients. If you can afford the carbs, she usually crushes pecans and rolls the ball in pecans. My counts do not include pecans. For non LC'ers, put on Ritz or butter crackers. I used pork rinds and it was just as delicious.

Counts for whole recipe:
Cal:1847, fat:169.3, carb:32.7

Counts per 1/20th (I got about 20 tbsps out of this)
Cal:92.35, fat:8.47, carb:1.64
