directions

Using a serrated knife horizontally slice about 1-inch off the top of the bread loaf.

Brush or spoon about half of the mixture evenly over the interior of the bread shell, also spooon enough dressing on the cut side of the loaf to moisten.

Sprinkle with black pepper if desired.
Drizzle any remaining dressing over the filling.
Set the bread top over filling.
Wrap the sandwich in plastic wrap and chill for a minimum of 3 hours or up to 1 day.
Unwrap and slice into desired portions.
