How to Make Apache Cheese Bread
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Cut the top off a large round loaf of bread (about 1 pound), reserving the top for later.
- Carefully hollow out the inside of the bread, leaving about a ½-inch border.
- In a large bowl, combine the following ingredients: 8 ounces cream cheese (softened), 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese, ½ cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese, ¼ cup chopped green chilies, 2 tablespoons chopped green onions, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, ½ teaspoon onion powder, ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional). Mix well.
- Fill the hollowed-out bread with the cheese mixture.
- Replace the bread top.
- Place the bread on a baking sheet.
- Bake for 60-70 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Let cool slightly before serving with tortilla chips.
