A friend of mine always makes it with a thick cheese or white sauce and puts roast chicken and spinach in it. You could also add corn, or zucchini or roasted pumpkin or all of them!!! You could do it with a can of soup or any other kind of soup (thicker rather than thinner).
Pretty well you just get a cob. Chop the top off pull the insides out, leaving a little bit on the walls and base, and break into pieces to dip and the crisp it up in the oven. Once you've crisped it up pour in you sauce/soup and serve
Yummy!!!
Mine have a cream cheese, sour cream, grated tasty base. Then add any fillings....
chicken,tuna,spring onions,bacon,spinach, anything really...
Cut off the top, pull out excess bread. Fill with cream cheese combo, bake 40 min... last 15 min put in all the other bread bits, cut into bite size chunks, and crisp them up.... yummo.....
500mls sour cream
2 slices of bacon, chopped and lightly fried
2 spring onions finely chopped
1 packet of spring vegetable soup mix
chilli powder to taste (optional)
After cooking the bacon, mix all the ingredients together in a microwave proof bowl for 2 minutes.
Hollow out your cobb loaf and pour the mixture into the bread. Wrap in 2 layers of alfoil and bake at about 160 degrees for about an hour and fifteen or thereabouts.
In saucepan brown 1/2 a diced onion and about 3 rashers of chopped bacon in a little bit of olive oil or cooking spray. (must use saucepan not frying pan) once lightly browned, add 1 block of philly cheese, 1 cup grated cheese, 4 tbsp of sour cream. Mix well. Stir until all cheese melted and mixture is smooth. Careful not to let it catch and burn, it does burn real easy.
Meanwhile chop top off cob loaf, and rip insides out. Pop insides ripped up onto a tray and pop into oven, along with hollowed cob. Leave in oven until golden, Spoon melted bacon and cheese mixture into cob loaf, and 'whalla' instant cob loaf dip, no oven baking required.
There are other delicious versions around, spinach or tuna etc.
I also make a tuna one, in saucepan saute 1/2 diced onion then add a handful of finely chopped spinach leaves. Then add tin of tuna, block of philly cheese and a couple of tbsp of curry powder and a couple of tbsp of sour cream to make it not so thick. Heat until all mixed, serve in cob loaf or just a bowl as a warm dip, yummo!
Another great dipper to use as the chunks of cob loaf disappear rather quickly, get a large round pita bread, cut the whole bread into triangles (think of corn chip shape) lay on tray, spray with cooking spray and then sprinkle with lemon pepper seasoning and bake, or brush lightly with a mixture of olive oil with crushed garlic in it, then sprinkle with sea salt, bake in oven until lightly golden and just going crispy.
