Feta Spinach Stuffed French Bread
INGREDIENTS:
Filling:
• 8 oz cream cheese room temperature
• 1/2 cup mayonnaise
• 1/2 cup sour cream
• 1 package Lipton onion soup mix See Note 1
• 1/2 tsp fresh cracked black pepper
• 2 cups mozzarella cheese separated
• 1 cup feta cheese
• 10 oz package frozen chopped spinach
• 24 slices of sliced salami rounds chopped (See Note 2)
• 2 loaves french bread or 4 baguettes
INSTRUCTIONS:
1 Preheat oven to 350°F. Thaw frozen spinach and drain in a sieve, pressing to extract excess water. Place spinach in a bowl and set aside.
2 Sliced the top off the loaf of bread(s) horizontally and scoop out the interior bread leaving a wonderful crust container. Save inside bread pieces for other use.
3 In a mixing bowl add the cream cheese, mayonnaise, sour cream, onion soup mix package and black pepper. Mix to blend and add 1 cup mozzarella and the feta cheese and mix. Next add the spinach and salami. Stir to combine.
4 Divide the filling between loaves of bread and top with remaining 1 cup mozzarella cheese. Bake for 20-24 minutes until top is golden and bubbling. Allow to cool slightly before slicing.
RECIPE NOTES:
1. Feta cheese is a little on the salty side, so if that is a possible issue for you I would use half of the onion soup mix, or just 2 teaspoons dried onions.
2. I used a 15 oz package of Gallo Italian Dry Salami slices and chopped them. It was 24 slices total for the recipe.
