List of Ingredients




1 lb (450 g) cream cheese at room temperature
3 eggs, lightly beaten
1/4 cup (60 ml) finely chopped chives or scallions (spring onions)
1 loaf French bread (baguette)
Suggested fillings:
Thinly sliced cooked ham
Thinly sliced smoked salmon
Thinly sliced cooked turkey
Canned tuna, drained and mixed with finely chopped green bell pepper (capsicum)
Chopped raw vegetables
Cooked shrimp or crab meat


Recipe



Combine the cream cheese, eggs, and chopped chives in a bowl and beat with a wooden spoon until thoroughly combined. Cut the loaf of bread in half lengthwise and scoop out some of the soft interior, forming a pair of shallow shells. Fill the bread with a filling of your choice and spread the cream cheese mixture in a thick layer on top of both halves of the loaf. Place on a baking sheet and bake in a preheated 450F (230C) oven until the topping is set and lightly browned, about 15 minutes. Cut into individual portions and serve immediately.
Serves 6 to 8.
