Ingredients:
1 pkg. (8 oz.) cream cheese, softened
1 1/2 c. (12 oz.) sour cream
2 c. (8 oz.) shredded cheddar cheese
1 1/2 tsp. Worcestershire sauce
3/4 lb. sliced bacon, cooked and crumbled
1/2 c. chopped green onions
Assorted crackers

Directions:
Cut the top fourth off the loaf of bread; carefully hollow out the bottom, leaving a 1 inch shell.  Cut the removed bread and top of the loaf into cubes; set aside.

In a large bowl, beat cream cheese until fluffy.  Add the sour cream, cheddar cheese and Worcestershire sauce until blended; stir in bacon and onions.

Spoon into bread shell.  Wrap in a piece of heavy-duty foil (about 24 x 17 inches).  Bake at 325 degrees for 1 hour or until heated through.  Serve with crackers and reserved bread cubes.
