Ingredients
- 1 12-inch oval loaf French bread
- ½ cup butter or margarine, softened
- 1 cup shredded Monterey Jack or sharp cheddar cheese
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
- 1 teaspoon finely chopped garlic, about 1 clove
- 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Slice loaf of bread at 1-inch intervals, being careful not to cut all the way through. Place loaf on a long sheet of aluminum foil. Combine the softened butter and remaining ingredients in a bowl, stirring until well combined. Spread approximately 1 tablespoon of the butter mixture inside each slice of bread. Spread any remaining butter mixture over the top of the loaf. Secure foil tightly and bake for 20 minutes. Unwrap foil to expose top of loaf and bake 10 minutes more.
