Instructions

In a skillet, saute hamburger with minced garlic, chopped onion and (optional) parsley.

Preheat oven to 350°F.

Carve top in a circle (leaving a "cap" that you will replace on top later) out of French bread and hollow out the middle. Break up the bread innards into small pieces and set aside in a medium bowl.

To these bread crumbs, add the browned hamburger mixture, condensed cream of mushroom soup, and seasonings to taste.

Mix ingredients well and re-stuff this mixture back into French bread shell.

Top with cheese and replace the top (hopefully you saved it).

Wrap in aluminum foil and bake in 350°F oven 20 minutes. This will melt the cheese and help the flavors to combine. Slice and serve.
