Giant french loaf deliburger for 5

1 Servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
1½ pounds Lean ground beef (up to 2)
Garlic salt to taste
¾ pounds Shredded swiss cheese (or cheddar)
1 pint Deli cole slaw (get the creamy kind, not vinegar-dressed)
¾ cup Russian Dressing** recipe to follow
1 large Loaf fresh-baked french bread
⅓ cup Tomato ketchup
½ cup Mayonnaise
1 teaspoon Lemon juice
3 tablespoons Dill pickle relish
1 Hard boiled egg, chopped (optional)

Directions

RUSSIAN DRESSING

Spray a large skillet with Pam or use a small amount of cooking oil and thoroughly brown the ground beef. Drain off all of the fat. Stir in garlic salt. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Slice the french loaf lengthwise using a sharp bread knife. With clean hand, scoop out the center of the loaf leaving a 2" thick "shell" on top and bottom.

Spread both sides of the split loaf with Russian Dressing**. On bottom half of loaf, spread out the sauteed hamburger. Sprinkle over the swiss cheese. Replace top of loaf and wrap the whole thing in two layers of aluminum foil. Heat the loaf in the hot oven for approximately 15 minutes.

Remove from oven and transfer to serving platter. Carefully unwrap the loaf, avoiding steam. Remove top layer of bread and spread cole slaw over hot hamburger mixture. Replace top and slice loaf diagonally into five pieces.

Serving suggestions: Since you've got a hot oven going anyway, this sandwich is terrific with oven-baked wedge fries with the skin left on the potato. Add a tossed green salad.

RUSSIAN DRESSING: Stir ingredients together and chill for at least ½ hour before using.
