Time 2h7m

Yield 12 to 16 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

Ingredients

2 (15-inch-long) French baguettes
1 pound bulk breakfast sausage
2 tablespoons chopped jalapenos
1 cup chopped green bell peppers
1/4 cup chopped green onions (green and white parts)
8 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature
8 ounces sour cream
8 ounces grated sharp Cheddar
1 teaspoon Emeril's Original Essence, recipe follows
Chopped fresh parsley leaves, for garnish
Corn or tortilla chips, for dipping, optional
2 1/2 tablespoons paprika
2 tablespoons salt
2 tablespoons garlic powder
1 tablespoon black pepper
1 tablespoon onion powder
1 tablespoon cayenne pepper
1 tablespoon dried oregano
1 tablespoon dried thyme

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
Using a serrated knife, trim the upper quarter off the length of the top of each loaf. Hollow out the center of the loaves, leaving a 1/2-inch-thick shell. Set aside.
Brown the sausage in a large skillet over medium-high heat for about 5 minutes, stirring to break up any clumps. Add the jalapenos, bell peppers, and green onions. Cook, stirring, until the vegetables are soft, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the cream cheese, sour cream, and Cheddar and stir until completely melted, about 2 minutes. Add the Essence and remove from the heat.
Fill the hollowed-out bread loaves with equal amounts of the sausage-cheese mixture and wrap each loaf in aluminum foil. Place the loaves on a baking sheet and bake for 1 hour. Remove from the oven, unwrap, and sprinkle with parsley.
Serve warm with chips for dipping, if desired, or cut the bread crosswise into 2-inch slices.
Combine all ingredients thoroughly.

SAUSAGE STUFFED FRENCH BREAD

I got this recipe out of a cookbook and tweaked it a little. This is great for parties and you can serve the filling alone in a crock pot with chips or with toasted french bread slices if you don't want to serve as sandwiches.

Tips:

Use high-quality sausage: The type of sausage you use will greatly affect the overall flavor of the dish. Opt for a flavorful sausage that is well-seasoned and has a good balance of meat and fat.

Don't overstuff the bread: While you want the bread to be well-stuffed, you don't want to overstuff it to the point that it bursts open. This will make it difficult to cook evenly and may cause the filling to spill out.

Use a sharp knife to score the bread: This will help the bread cook evenly and prevent it from becoming too hard.

Bake the bread until it is golden brown: This will ensure that the bread is cooked through and that the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Let the bread rest before slicing: This will help the bread to set and make it easier to slice.

Conclusion:

Sausage-stuffed French bread is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. With its flavorful sausage filling and crispy bread crust, this dish is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give sausage-stuffed French bread a try. You won't be disappointed!
