Appetizer
Description
The recipe won't take much time. The "Christmas Tree Balls" appetizer can be made the day before; if they rest in the refrigerator, they'll be even better. All the ingredients will soak up the dressing well, and the balls will set better when chilled. Chicken can be replaced with lightly salted salmon and eggs. For decorating the balls, you can use caviar, corn, and carrot strips. Good luck, and serve with greens and sauce.
