About 30 years ago I was working in an office with 15 other women. We had the best potluck lunches and treats. Somebody was always bringing in something tasty to share and we could find any reason to have a potluck - birthdays, baby showers, promotions, etc. About the only thing we didn't do a potluck for was end of the month closing and that's because our boss always made us a deal if we closed on time he would take us all out to lunch. Great deal for us - not so much for him, but he enjoyed lunch as much as we all did, after all he was surrounded by 16 beautiful women!
This recipe for Obscene Bread comes from one of the gals I used to work with. It's so simple and delicious it really deserves it's name of Obscene Bread - after all
it's so good it's obscene! LOL!!! I have been making this for any potluck or gathering I go to. People just love it! My late Uncle Dan would see it on the table at one of my parties and immediately go for it and then keep telling me how much he loved it. Isn't it great when a simple recipe has such a great response from people? My hubby went to a friends the other day and I suggested he take the leftovers with him, his friend Erik told next time to bring him a whole loaf!
Like I said this recipe is so simple and I have posted it here on my blog before - but it is one that deserves repeating and especially for the holiday season. It's delicious, easy and extremely low cost AND it's something different that many people have not had - everyone will be begging you for the recipe!
To make the Obscene Bread you will need:
1 loaf of French or Italian style bread,
roughly about 1/2 to 3/4 cup of Mayonaise,
1/2 to 3/4 cup of Grated Parmesan cheese and
3/4 to 1 cup sliced green onions, depending on how much onion you want - both the white and green parts
Slice the loaf of bread horizontally, place on a baking sheet
Spread the mayo on each side about 1/8 inch thick - covering all the way to the sides - you want a good covering so the other toppings kind of melt into it
Sprinkle both sides evenly with the Parmesan cheese first and then the sliced green onion
Now place in the oven and broil on HIGH until the toppings are lightly browned and bubbly. Remove from oven and carefully (it's hot) slice into desired size of pieces. Serve immediately, truly best when fresh from the broiler but not bad at room temp either - which makes it great for entertaining.
I hope you too enjoy this as much as my family and friends do, please feel free to leave me a comment on what you thought.
