French loaf filled with chicken, bacon, ranch, and melty cheese, baked until golden and bubbling.

# Ingredients:

01 - 1 loaf of French bread
02 - 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded
03 - 1 cup cooked bacon, chopped
04 - 1 cup ranch dressing
05 - 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
06 - 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
07 - 1/4 cup green onions, chopped
08 - 1 tablespoon butter, melted
09 - 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
10 - 1/2 teaspoon dried parsley

# Steps:

01 - Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) to ensure it’s ready for baking.
02 - Slice the loaf of French bread in half lengthwise. Hollow out the center of each half, leaving about a 1-inch shell to create a cavity for the filling.
03 - In a large bowl, combine shredded chicken, chopped bacon, ranch dressing, mozzarella cheese, and green onions. Mix well to coat evenly.
04 - Spoon the filling mixture into the hollowed-out bread halves, pressing it down gently to pack it in.
05 - Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the top of the stuffed bread for added flavor.
06 - In a small bowl, mix melted butter with garlic powder and dried parsley. Brush this mixture over the top of the bread.
07 - Place the stuffed bread halves on a baking sheet and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
08 - Let the bread cool slightly before slicing and serving. Enjoy the gooey, savory flavors with every bite.
