CHEDDAR BACON LOAF

By Kitchenbee

Ingredients

• 16 16 16 oz loaf baguette style French bread
• 1/2 1/2 1/2 cup butter, softened
• 1 1 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese (4 oz)
• 6 6 6 slices bacon, crisp-cooked, drained, and crumbled
• 1/4 1/4 1/4 cup sliced green onions
• 2 2 2 tsp yellow mustard
• 1 1 1 tsp freshly squeezed lemon juice

Preparation

Step 1

Using a serrated knife, cut bread crosswise into 1 inch slices, cutting to but not through the bottom crust.

In a small bowl, stir together butter, cheese, bacon, onions, mustard and lemon juice. Spread mixture on both sides of each bread slice. Wrap loaf tightly in heavy foil.

For a charcoal grill, place loaf on the grill rack directly over medium coals. Grill, uncovered, about 10 minutes or until cheese melts and bread is heated through, turning once. (For a gas grill, preheat grill. Reduce heat to medium. Place loaf on the grill rack over heat. Cover and grill as above.)
