Today I bring you a genius idea for the perfect superbowl party.

Source: http://www.rhodesbread.com/recipes/view/2496 (includes video instructions)

Ingredients
1 loaf rhodes bread dough, thawed but still cold
1 egg, beaten
1 string cheese

Instructions
1. Cut about 2 inches of dough off the end of loaf. Spray counter lightly with non-stick cooking spray and roll the cut off piece into a 9x12-inch oval. Trim two 1x10-inch strips off the oval (top and bottom) and set them aside. Place the oval on sprayed baking sheet and shape into a flat football shape.

2. Roll remaining part of loaf into a 12-inch rope. Cut it in half lengthwise. Curve each half into an arch and lay (cut side down; place one half on top and other half on bottom of football) on top of the rolled out oval to form a football shaped bowl. Pinch ends together securely making a point at each end. Lay the one inch strips you set aside over each end of the football to make the stripes. Tuck the ends under the football.

3. Brush with beaten egg and let rise 30-45 minutes. Pinch the ends again to make nice points and bake at 350F for 30 minutes. Let cool and trim out middle of football to make as much space as desired for your dip. Fill with Queso Dip (see below). Make stitching by cutting a string cheese and lay on top of dip. Serve with chips.

Queso Dip
1 pound lean ground beef, cooked and drained
16 ounces Mexican Velveeta
10 ounce can diced tomatoes and green chilies
4 ounce can diced green chilies

Cut cheese into cubes and melt in microwave. Add remaining ingredients and stir until well combines. Heat again and serve, with chips, in Football Dip Bowl.

Would you eat the bread or just discard it?

We discarded it, it was just too much bread for my little kids, but thats just my family...
