Stuffed Italian Bread - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 Italian bread, about 12 inches long
    1/2 cup butter, melted
    1/8 cup olive oil
    3 teaspoons onions, minced
    2 -3 garlic cloves, grated
    1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
    1 tablespoon poppy seed
    3 teaspoons chopped parsley (add more if you wish)
    12 ounces grated cheese (I used a mix of white cheddar and monterey jack.)
Preparation
    Preheat the oven to 350\u00b0F.
    Mix the melted butter, olive oil, onion, garlic, dijon mustard, poppy seeds and parsley in a bowl.
    Cut the bread into cubes with X slices without cutting all the way through the bottom crust.
    Pour the butter-onion garlic mixture carefully into those X cracks using a small spoon and over the top of the bread. Fill those delicious cracks with the grated cheese. (It seems like a lot of work and trouble but it's all worth it. Yes.).
    Wrap the entire loaf with foil, sealing the sides properly and bake for 15-20 minutes. Remove from the oven and unwrap. Bake for another 10 minutes until the cheese is melted and gooey.
