Ingredients

1 (1 pound) loaf French bread
2 cups shredded Cheddar cheese
2 cups chopped cooked ham
1 (8 ounce) container sour cream
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
0.5 cup chopped green onions
0.25 cup chopped green chile peppers
2 small jalapeno peppers, chopped, or to taste

Directions

1

Preheat the oven to 325°F (165°C).

2

Cut off the top of the bread loaf and reserve it. Hollow out the loaf to create space for the filling; chop the hollowed-out bread for dipping.

3

In a bowl, mix together Cheddar cheese, ham, sour cream, cream cheese, green onions, green chilies, and jalapeños.

4

Spoon the mixture into the hollowed-out bread loaf. Place the reserved bread top back onto the loaf. Wrap the loaf with 2 pieces of aluminum foil.

5

Bake for about 1 hour and 20 minutes until the filling is cooked through and bubbling.
