- This recipe is in response to a request for tailgate party food. I think
- this recipe would be great for a tailgate party. Easy to make and it
- tastes good, too!
-
- STUFFED FRENCH BREAD
-
- 3/4 cup cream cheese, softened
- 1/4 cup smoked Gouda cheese, softened
- 1/2 tsp. basil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tomato, diced and seeded
- 1 small red onion, diced
- 3 red bell peppers, roasted, skinned and diced
- 1/4 to 1/2 cup artichoke hearts
- salt and pepper to taste
- 1 loaf good french bread or baguette
-
-
- Process first four ingredients in food processor to thoroughly blend
- cheeses with seasonings. Add next four ingredients and pulse 2 to 3 times
- (DO NOT OVERMIX!).
-
- Empty mixture into a bowl. Slice loaf horizontally and remove some of the
- insid e of the bread to make a shell. Fill the bottom half of the bread
- with the mixture a nd place the top half on top. Wrap in plastic wrap and
- refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. (Can be made and kept for the next
- day.)
-
- **You can roast your own bell peppers or you can use 1 - 2 small jar(s) of
- the peppers that are already roasted and skinned. Ususally found on the
- pickle/oliv e aisle in the grocery.
-
- This is basically a vegetarian sandwich but you could add diced salami,
- pepperon i or cooked Italian sausage (hot or mild) for a heartier
- sandwich.
