Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

For the Mushrooms12 oz sliced mushrooms1 Tbs butter

1 Tbs chopped fresh thyme

For the Bread1 unsliced loaf sourdough bread12 oz Provolone cheese, thinly sliced

1/2 cup butter, melted

1/2 cup finely diced green onion

2 tsp poppy seeds

For the Mushrooms1. Heat a medium skillet on medium. Add the butter. Once the butter is

melted, add the mushrooms. Cook 4-5 minutes until they start to sweat. Add

the thyme and continue to cook another 2-3 minutes.

2. Set mushrooms aside and allow to cool.

For the Bread1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

2. Cut the bread lengthwise and widthwise without cutting through the bottom

crust. This can be a little tricky going the second way but the bread is

very forgiving.

3. Place loaf on a foil-lined baking sheet.

4. Insert cheese slices between cuts. Pour the mushrooms between the cuts.

Use your fingers to push the mushrooms down into the loaf.

5. Combine butter, onion, and poppy seeds. Drizzle over bread. Wrap in foil;

place on a baking sheet.

6. Bake at 350 degrees for 15 minutes.

7. Unwrap the bread and bake 10 more minutes, or until cheese is melted.

Oh dear aorta, look at the Nutritional info! I caved this morning and joined the ranks of Crack'd.

I did attempt a measure of restraint by using a sour dough roll instead of a loaf.

2.5 slices of bacon
3 oz of cheddar cheese
1 tsp of Ranch dressing
2 Tbl. butter

I wish I'd never seen this recipe.

 
I forgot to mention that it was delicious. Buttery, cheesy, bacony, bready...I

could hear my arteries shutting down like the Gates of Mordor slamming shut in Return of the King.

 
Marilyn, dear, you are such a geek!

However, it was unnecessary to add "in Return of the King". Every knows the Gates of Mordor.

 
oh, I beg to differ. I am not a LOTR fan and would have no idea what those Gates were.still a geek,

just not a LOTR geek.

 
Panera's opening up across the street from the mid-Manhattan branch of the NYPL. I'm in trouble.

And by "I'm in trouble," I mean, "I AM ECSTATIC."

When my buttons pop off from too many Cobblestones, I'll just get my exercise by crossing the street, selecting more books, and returning to Panera.

Manhattan has a lot, but (as far as I know) it does not yet have anything resembling a Cobblestone. The day of pants reckoning is nigh...

 
Yeah, you had to go and introduce me to a cobblestone... smileys/wink.gif

I've been there many times for lunch without spying this goodie, now sounds like a must taste item!
