By JanetLynn198

Total time: 1 1/2 hours

Ingredients

• 1 large round loaf Hawaiian bread
• 4 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese, 16 oz
• 8 oz cream cheese, softened
• 8 oz sour cream
• 1/2 cup finely chopped green onions
• 2 cans chopped green chilies, drained
• 1 to 1 1/2 cups chopped ham, crumbled crisply cooked bacon, chopped cooked turkey or a combination

Preparation

Step 1

1. Cut top from bread and scoop out the center to form a bread bowl. Reserve the top and center. Tear reserved bread center into bite size pieces.

2. Mix the cheddar cheese, cream cheese, sour cream, green onions, green chilies, and ham in a bowl and mix well. The mixture will be stiff. Spoon into the bread bowl. Replace top and place on baking sheet.

3. Bake at 350 for 1 hour and 10 mins. The outside of the bread may blacken a little, but this won't affect the taste. Serve with the reserved bread pieces or tortilla chips for dipping.
Note: You may substitute light ingredients, but do not substitute fat free ingredients.
