1
loaf French bread (16 oz)
1/2
cup chopped roasted red bell pepper, thoroughly drained and patted dry
2
teaspoons finely chopped garlic
1
cup packed baby spinach, coarsely chopped
2
cups shredded deli rotisserie chicken
1
jar (15 oz) Alfredo pasta sauce

Preparation
Heat oven to 350°F. Line large cookie sheet with cooking parchment paper, or spray with cooking spray.
Using serrated knife, cut French bread in half, and cut each half lengthwise through center. Hollow out each piece, removing bread and leaving 1/2-inch shell. Cut removed bread portions into 1-inch pieces, and set aside.
In large bowl, mix roasted red bell pepper, garlic, spinach, chicken, Alfredo sauce, salt, pepper and reserved bread pieces; mix well. Spoon mixture into French bread shells, and sprinkle with cheese; place on cookie sheet.
Bake 28 to 32 minutes or until heated through and cheese has melted. To serve, cut bread crosswise into 2-inch slices.
