["1. In a medium bowl mix all cheese ball ingredients, except for the nuts.", "Form the cheese mixture into a ball and gently roll in the chopped walnuts and pecans.", "3. Bend the end of a Slim Jim to create the turkey neck and head. I find this works best when you warm the Slim Jim in your hand before you bend it - This way it won't break.", "4. Mix cream cheese with a couple drops of yellow food coloring in a small zip lock bag. Clip the corner and squeeze cream cheese to create the beak.", "5. Mix cream cheese with a couple drops of green food coloring in a small zip lock bag for the turkey's eyes.", "6. I used a small piece of red licorice for the gobbler and stick it right into the cream cheese ""beak"" - this holds the licorice in place. I arranged 3 rows of pretzel sticks for the feathers. The last row of feathers is thin breadsticks.", "7. Serve with crackers and/or veggies - Gobble, Gobble!!"]
