Stuffed French Bread

I have been taking this to parties for years....yummy!!!!

Stuffed French Bread

Cut out the middle of a loaf of Italian or Frency Bread -- the fresh kind from the bakery. The wider the loaf the better.

Brown and drain a roll of sausage -- I use Jimmy Dean.

Add to sausage in skillet:
1 cup chopped green bell peppers
1/4 cup chopped green onions
Cook a few min until veggies are soft...
Then add:
8 oz cream cheese
8 oz sour cream
8 oz grated sharp cheddar cheese
1 Tbsp of seasoning -- you can use any or all of the ones below but just 1 TBSP total...(see below for the mixture I keep mixed up)

Cook on skillet until all is mixed well and melted. Fill bread bowl. Put top back on. Wrap in foil and back 1 hour at 325 degrees.

Serve in slices or remove top and mix and serve with chips or veggies as a dip!

To make Seasoning Mixture: (But you'll only use 1 TBSP total)
Paprika 2 TBSP
Salt 2TBSP
