Olive Cheese Bread     

Ingredients:
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/2 cup butter, softened
7 oz. green olives, drained and roughly chopped
6 oz. black olives, drained and roughly chopped
8 oz. shredded Monterey Jack cheese
¼ cup thinly sliced green onions
¼ teaspoon garlic powder
8-10 oz. loaf French bread
Kosher salt
fresh cracked pepper

Preparation:
Heat oven to 350 degrees. In a medium bowl combine mayonnaise, garlic powder and butter along with a large pinch of salt and pepper. Stir until mostly smooth. Add cheese and green onion and stir until well combined. Fold olives into the cheese mixture.

Slice French bread loaf in half widthwise and then in half lengthwise. Divide olive mixture between the four pieces, spreading it in an even layer on the cut side of the bread.

Bake for 20-25 minutes or until cheese is melted and the ends start to get golden brown. Broil for 1-2 minutes or until the cheese starts to get dark golden brown. Slice on the bias about every 2 inches.
