Olive, Onion and Cheese Bread

Just a new and successful recipe I tried for the holidays.

Olive, Onion and Cheese Bread

Mix

1/2 cup softened butter (1 cube)

1/2 cup mayonaise (I used light)

Stir in-gently

8 green onions-sliced

1 can (8 oz.) mushrooms stems and pieces-chopped finer

1 can (4 1/2 oz.) chopped olives (I used sliced)

2 cups grated mozzarella cheese

(Filling can be made ahead, but bring to room temp. before using.)

Split 1 loaf of unsliced french bread length wise. Now frost the bread halves with your cheese filling.

Bake @ 375* for 15-20 mins. Or until melted and lightly browned. Cool about 5 mins. and then cut into slices.

On New Year's Eve Doug and I went to Macey's Grocery Store to pick up our

6 FOOT SANDWICH! (An annual tradition unless New Year's Eve fall on a Sunday.) Anyway, they were demoing this recipe. It was not ready to be sampled, yet, but it sounded right. So, we picked up a few things.

It was easy and good. Problems? "I want a piece with no olives." "EWW. Mushrooms?" "I don't like onions." Everyone else liked it. To make this a bit more festive for Christmas, I will add some finely chopped red peppers. Enjoy. This one gets copied into my cookbook. (More about the rest of the new ones later.)

I will do my drawing on Monday when I blog. (Each picture will be assigned a number, and one of the kidults will pick a # out of a bowl.) Good Luck, Super Followers!
