Stuffed Italian Bread

Description

An easy way to dress up a plain loaf of bread! Great as an appetizer or as a side dish to grilled steaks. My local grocery sells a blend of mozzarella and provolone cheese that I use.

Ingredients

  • ½ cup butter, melted
  • 3 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 loaf Italian bread
  • 12 ounces shredded Italian cheese blend

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  2. Mix melted butter
  3. parsley
  4. olive oil
  5. and garlic together in a bowl.
  6. Slice bread diagonally without cutting all the way through; do the same on the opposite diagonal to create cube-shaped sections still attached to the bottom crust.
  7. Spoon butter mixture carefully between sections; stuff in shredded Italian cheese blend. Wrap loaf in aluminum foil.
  8. Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes; unwrap and bake until cheese is melted
  9. about 10 minutes more.
