Instructions

1. 1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

6. 6. Spoon the filling into the hollowed-out bread loaf halves. Place the stuffed loaf halves on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes, or until the loaf is heated through and slightly crisp.
7. 7. Remove from the oven, slice into portions, and serve warm.
