HOT HOAGIE LOVE

Today I thought I would share a new favorite of mine.  My sister directed me to one of her favorite recipe blogs MyKitchenCafe and to one of her family's favorites - Hot Hoagies.  I had everything I needed, so I threw it together for supper the other night.  It did not disappoint. 


Hot Hoagies


(from Tiffany M.)



1 loaf french bread, cut lengthwise

2 cups cooked, shredded chicken (in a pinch, you can use two large cans chicken breast)

1/2 cup light mayo

1/2 cup reduced fat sour cream

2 green onions, thinly sliced (white and green parts)

1/2 teaspoon garlic salt

1/3 cup fresh parsley, chopped (or 2 tablespoons dried)

2 cups shredded cheese (I used a combo of monterey jack and sharp cheddar cheese)

Olives, chopped (0ptional – I omit these due to my kids’ preferences)



Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place french bread on large baking sheet. Mix all topping ingredients together in a bowl. Spread topping evenly on top of both lengths of french bread. Bake for 15-20 minutes until bubbly and edges are lightly browned. Slice into pieces and serve immediately.

Actually, I did leave out the parsley and substitute dried minced onion for green onion.  It still turned out fantstic.  I also topped mine with a little Provalone and let it melt on top.  FABULOUS!  

Here's my picture.  It's not near as pretty as Mel's without the green parsley.  Maybe you should go look at hers.  It was good no matter what it looked like.  I served with a big ole green salad and it was MARVELOUS!!

Check out Mel's blog sometime.  She's got some great stuff on there.  Thanks Kelly for the dinner suggestion.
