Cheeseburger Loaf Kelly Briski

1 pound ground beef ¼ cup chopped onion

1 can condensed tomato soup, undiluted ½ tsp. garlic salt

¼ tsp. salt 1/3 tsp. pepper

1 loaf French bread 1 Tbsp. butter softened

8 oz. processed American or Mexican flavored cheese, sliced

In a saucepan over medium heat, cook beef and onion until meat is no longer pink. Drain. Add soup, garlic salt, salt and pepper; simmer for 5 – 10 minutes. Meanwhile, slice the top third off the bread. Hollow out bottom half of loaf, leaving a ¾ inch shell. Spread butter on cut side of bread. Place loaf on a baking sheet and broil until lightly browned. Spoon beef mixture into shell; arrange cheese slices on top. Broil until cheese is melted, about 2-3 minutes. Replace bread top. Yield 6 – 8 servings.
