chookpan, the following is a recipe that, over the years, has been very popular here on the Recipes MB.....

DIVINE GREEN DIP - with thanks to "toadfish"
1 Cobb Loaf
1 onion
¾ cup mayonnaise
1 tsp curry powder
1 cup grated cheese
250g cream cheese
¼ tsp basil
4 silverbeet leaves, cooked and well-drained

Cut the top off and hollow out the Cobb loaf, keeping the bread to cut into small serving-sized pieces for dipping.
Mix all the remaining ingredients in a food processor and then pour the mixture into the Cobb shell and place the lid on i.e. the piece cut from the top of the loaf.
Bake at 150°C for ½ hour. Serve warm.
Note from toadfish – “This is absolutely divine but the bread is not enough on its own for dipping, so I always serve other things e.g. Snax crackers, finely sliced French bread…..I have also done in it in small rolls for individual dips and my Aunt has served it up as a Vegetarian meal, 1 dinner roll with filling and lots of chopped up vegetables for each person.” :-))
