This sandwich is sized right for a crowd or a family meal during the holidays, according to Dona Bass of Aberdeen Proving Grounds, Maryland. What's more, it's perfect for preparing ahead, she describes. I just stuff the bread and store it in the refrigerator, then pop it in the oven right before our guests arrive. Dona Bass, Aberdeen Proving Grounds, Maryland Ingredients:
1 loaf (1 pound) french bread |
2 cups cubed monterey jack cheese (1/4-inch pieces) |
2 cups cubed fully cooked ham (1/4-inch pieces) |
1/2 cup finely chopped red onion |
1/2 cup butter, melted |
2 tablespoons lemon juice |
2 tablespoons poppy seeds |
2 teaspoon prepared mustard |
Directions:
1. Slice bread diagonally about every 1/2 in., not cutting all the way through bottom crust. Place loaf on a piece of foil large enough to wrap it completely.
2. Insert the cheese, ham and onion evenly between every other slice. Combine remaining ingredients; drizzle between slices and over top. Wrap foil tightly. Bake at 350° for 35 minutes. Cut bread between unstuffed slices; serve warm. Yield: 6-8 servings.
