Make the cheese mixture: In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese until creamy and smooth. Add the well-drained crushed pineapple, chopped green pepper, green onions, lemon-pepper seasoning, and seasoned salt. Mix well to combine all ingredients.
Fold in the pecans: Gently fold in 1/2 cup chopped pecans into the cheese mixture, ensuring even distribution throughout the mixture.
Form the cheese ball: Form the cheese mixture into a ball using your hands or a spatula. Wrap the cheese ball tightly in plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight to let the flavors meld and the cheese firm up.
Coat with pecans: Before serving, spread the remaining pecans on a flat surface. Unwrap the cheese ball and roll it in the pecans, pressing gently to adhere the pecans to the cheese.
Serve: Place the pecan-coated cheese ball on a serving platter. Surround yourself with an assortment of crackers and enjoy!
