SPICY MINCE COB LOAF
A favourite in our house. Cob loaf filled with spicy mince mixture (to taste) and very easy to make. This was a recipe made from an old taco mince and chillie con carne recipes and modified to fit in with what we had in the cupboard. It worked out so well we have it often. We also use any leftover mince to make tacos, nachos or sandwiches. It is a cheap easy meal.

Steps:
- Cook mince in large frypan with oil. Drain and put aside. (We remove mince from pan and put in colander then wash mince with hot water to remove all the fat but this is purely optional).
- Cook onions, capsicum and garlic until onions are soft. Add chilli and cook for 1 minute.
- Return mince to pan with chilli powder, coriander, cumin, pepper, paprika, oregano, and sauces.
- Simmer for about 10 minutes then add kidney beans.
- Let this cook on low heat for about 30 minutes. Make sure mixture is not too wet as it will soak through the bread.
- Prepare cob loaf by cutting off the top and removing soft inside bread leaving at least a 2 inch crust on bottom and sides. Try to keep inside together when removing as this makes good bread slices.
- Fill cob loaf with mince level with top. Place on flat oven tray.
- Cut top and inside bread into thick slices and place beside cob on tray.
- Place cheese on top of mince and bake in a moderate oven 180C for about 15 - 20 minutes or until cheese has melted and bread is lightly toasted. You may have to remove bread prior to cob if it is cooking too quickly.
- Cut with bread knife into quarters and serve on plate with sour cream and chilli sauce.
- Heat leftover cob in over to keep the bread crispy.
- You can modify this recipe to suit your tastes and needs. Any sort of mince can be used and you can add or subtract any number of vegetables. I also add a taco seasoning mix with spices if I have some leftover.

CHICKEN & ASPARAGUS COBB LOAF
Always a favourite at get-togethers, this easy cob loaf is quick to prepare and extremely moorish! I recommend a crusty cob loaf to avoid leaks! Also recipe can be adjusted to individual taste so the ingredients are only a guide. I also make a bacon and mushroom mixture which is also extremely good! The servings will depend on the size of the Cob Loaf.

Steps:
- Cut the top off of the Cob Loaf about 1/4 of the way down. Set aside top.
- Gently scoop out the soft bread centre of the Cob Loaf, careful not to break the sides. Tear this soft bread into pieces for dipping and place on a baking tray with the hollow cob loaf.
- Bake in a moderate oven until crisp (avoid browning if possible). Take out and set aside.
- Finely dice Chicken and cook in a non-stick or lightly oiled frypan.
- In a large saucepan/pot over a medium heat, combine Sour Cream, Grated Cheese, Asparagus and cooked Chicken and stir until the cheese has melted and the mixture is warm. DO NOT BRIN TO THE BOIL!
- Pour mixture into the Cob Loaf, replace top and place in a moderate oven for 5 minutes to heat the outside. If you have some mixture left over just serve in a bowl beside the Cob.
- Serve on a Large Platter surrounded by the dipping pieces. Once the dipping pieces are devoured, break off the sides! The whole lot can be eaten. (The sides and bottom of the cob are the best!).

Steps:
- Heat the butter in a small pan.
- Fry the onion 'til softened.
- Transfer to a microwave proof bowl and mix with all the other ingredients.
- Microwave on medium to warm a little (about 5 minutes).
- This is not really necessary but speeds thing up.
- Meanwhile remove a "lid" from the bread loaf, and remove the centre to create a bowl. We cut the removed piece into chunks, and bake for about 5 minutes alongside the bowl to use as dippers.
- Place the bowl in a moderate oven for about 5 minutes.
- Remove and fill with the mixture, grate some extra cheese over if you wish, and return to the oven to heat through 'til hot and bubbling (about 30minutes).
- My neighbour sometimes substitutes bacon for the ham, or adds pineapple.
- I think you could add diced capsicum for colour too.

Tips:
- Choose the right mince: For the best flavor and texture, use a combination of beef and pork mince.
- Brown the mince well: This will help to develop the flavor and prevent the mince from becoming dry.
- Use fresh vegetables: Fresh vegetables will give your cob loaf a more vibrant flavor and texture.
- Don't overfill the cob loaf: The filling should be packed in tightly, but not so tightly that it bursts the loaf.
- Bake the cob loaf until the filling is cooked through: This will usually take around 30 minutes.
- Let the cob loaf cool slightly before slicing: This will help to prevent the filling from falling out.
