Ingredients

• 1 large round loaf country bread
• 4 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature
• 1/2 cup mayonnaise
• 1/2 cup sour cream
• 2 small jalapenos, 1 seeded and chopped, 1 finely chopped
• 1 clove garlic, crushed and peeled
• One 10-ounce box frozen chopped spinach, thawed, drained and squeezed very dry in a kitchen towel
• 1 cup marinated artichoke quarters, rinsed and drained
• 1/4 cup chopped fresh Italian parsley
• 1/2 cup roasted red peppers, drained and finely chopped

• Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Instructions

1. Watch how to make this recipe.
2. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Cut a thin slice from the top of the bread to expose the inside. With a paring knife, cut out the center of the bread to make a bread shell about 1-inch thick.
3. Cut the bread top and center into cubes and set aside.
4. Combine the cream cheese, mayonnaise, sour cream, chopped jalapeno and garlic in a food processor and process until smooth. Add the spinach and artichokes and pulse until chunky. Add the parsley, all but 1 tablespoon of the red peppers, 1 1/4 cup cheese, 1/2 teaspoon salt and some pepper and pulse just until combined.
5. Spoon the mixture into the bread bowl and top with the remaining 1/4 cup cheese, reserved red peppers and finely chopped jalapeno. Place the bread on a baking sheet. Brush the bread all over with olive oil and bake until hot and bubbly, 25 to 30 minutes.
6. Serve with the bread cubes, baguette, crackers and crudites.
