1 round loaf (1 to 1-1/2 pounds and 10 inches) unsliced bread
6 unsliced rolls (one 5 inches and five 3-1/2 inches)
Leaf lettuce, optional
3/4 pound thinly sliced deli ham
1 cup (4 ounces) shredded cheddar cheese, divided
3/4 pound thinly sliced deli turkey
2 large pitted ripe olives

In a small mixing bowl, beat cream cheese until light and fluffy. Stir in the
mayonnaise, mustard and onions. Slice bread and rolls one-third from the bottom
of each. Carefully hollow out tops of bread and rolls, leaving a 1/2-in. shell.

with ham and half of the cheddar cheese. Fill the rolls with turkey and remaining
cheese. Replace all tops. To assemble bear, place loaf on a large board. Place
5-in. roll on top for head and four small rolls for paws. Cut the remaining small
roll in half for ears. Use one olive for nose. Cut remaining olive in half;
