Chili Bread
Recipe By : Terry Ward
Serving Size : 8

1 loaf ( 1lb) French bread
1 can (16oz) kidney beans -- rinsed and drained
1 can (15oz) chili without beans
1 clove garlic -- minced
1 medium tomato -- chopped
2 green onions -- thinly sliced
2 cups (8oz) shredded Monterey Jack cheese

Cut bread in half. Scoop out some of the bread to make a shallow "bowl" (about 1/2 to 1" deep). Toast lightly under broiler. Combine the chili, beans and garlic, mixing well. Divide chili mixture between halves of bread. Sprinkle with tomato, onion and top with cheese. Bake at 350 degrees for 10-12 min. or until cheese is melted and bread is heated through.
