French Bread Stuffed with Creole Rice
French Bread Stuffed with Creole Rice is a delicious and hearty dish that is perfect for any occasion. This dish is a combination of two classic dishes, French bread and Creole rice, which makes it a unique and flavorful meal. The dish is made by stuffing a French bread loaf with a mixture of Creole rice, sausage, and vegetables.
To make this dish, you will need the following ingredients per serving:
- 1 French bread loaf
- 1/2 cup cooked Creole rice
- 1/4 cup cooked sausage, diced
- 1/4 cup diced bell pepper
- 1/4 cup diced onion
- 1/4 cup diced celery
- 1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
To start, preheat your oven to 350°F. Cut the top off of the French bread loaf and hollow out the inside, leaving about 1/2 inch of bread on the sides and bottom. In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat and sauté the bell pepper, onion, and celery until they are tender. Add the cooked sausage and Creole rice to the skillet and stir until everything is well combined. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Spoon the Creole rice mixture into the hollowed-out French bread loaf. Top with shredded cheddar cheese. Replace the top of the bread loaf and wrap the entire loaf in aluminum foil. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the bread is heated through.
Once the French Bread Stuffed with Creole Rice is done, remove it from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving. The dish has a beautiful appearance with the golden brown crust of the bread and the colorful filling of the Creole rice, sausage, and vegetables. The taste is savory and flavorful, with a perfect balance of spices and textures.
