mixture (refrigerate remaining mixture for another use). Cut the
top third off each baguette; carefully hollow out bottoms, leaving a
1/4-in. shell (discard removed bread or save for another use).
Spread olive mixture in the bottom of each loaf. Sprinkle with feta
cheese. Fold salami slices in half and place over cheese. Top with
the spinach, red peppers and artichokes, pressing down as necessary.
Replace bread tops. Wrap loaves tightly in foil. Refrigerate for at
least 3 hours or overnight. Serve cold, or place foil-wrapped
loaves on a baking sheet and bake at 350° for 20-25 minutes or
until heated through. Cut into slices; secure with a toothpick.
Editor's Note: 1/3 cup purchased tapenade (olive paste) may be
substituted for the olive mixture.
