Italian Bread Filled with Mushrooms

Ingredients

  • 1 1-pound round loaf Italian bread

  • 2 Tablespoons butter

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

  • 2 small onions, chopped

  • 2 Green onions, chopped

  • 1 1/2 pounds mushrooms, sliced

  • 4 ounces Gorgonzola cheese, crumbled

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350°F. Using serrated knife, cut top off bread and reserve. Cut out inside of bread, leaving 3/4-inch shell. Place bread and top on cookie sheet. Bake until lightly toasted, about 10 minutes. Keep bread warm.

Meanwhile, melt butter with oil in heavy medium skillet over medium heat. Add both onions and sauté until golden brown, about 10 minutes. Add mushrooms and cook until tender, about 10 minutes.

Reduce heat to low. Add cheese and stir until thoroughly blended, about 4 minutes (do not boil). Pour Mixture into loaf. Replace top and serve, cutting base and top into wedges.
