Bread Bowl Seafood Dip

1 package (8 ounces) cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1-1/2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
1 can (6 ounces) small shrimp, rinsed and drained
1 can (6 ounces) crabmeat, drained, flaked and cartilage removed
2/3 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese, divided
1/2 cup chopped green onions
1 round loaf (1 pound) sourdough bread
Assorted fresh vegetables

In a mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese, mayonnaise and mustard. Stir in the
shrimp, crab, 1/3 cup Monterey Jack cheese and onions. Cut the top fourth off the
loaf of bread; carefully hollow out bottom, leaving a 1/2-in. shell. Cube removed
bread; set aside. Spoon seafood mixture into bread shell. Sprinkle with
remaining cheese. Wrap tightly in heavy-duty foil and place on a baking sheet.
Bake at 350° for 25 minutes. Unwrap; bake 20-25 minutes longer or until
cheese is melted and dip is heated through. Serve with vegetables and reserved
bread cubes.

Yield: 2-1/4 cups.
