Talk about easy, the hardest part was keeping my 3 yr old from 'helping'. My children loved it and so did my hubby. Again way to go Kraft

I make this often with a few alterations. We use refridgerated tubes of french bread, as they require no advance planning to thaw. Also, we vary the meats and insides, like others have mentioned. Our favorite has been buffalo chicken from the deli, with some buffalo sauce, and blue cheese crumbles. A bowl of soup, a bag of salad, and some brownies, make me queen of the culinary world (at least as far as the kid's know).

I can't belive I never thought of this idea myself, it was so simple, my 10 year old made the entire thing herself! and it's so versatile too, you can add or subtract almost anything to it. Served with a bagged salad and dinner prep time was under 10 min.

My husband ate the whole loaf in one sitting! Hard tp believe , but it's true. I'm going to make it again, so the whole family could actually taste it before it disappears again. I used the honey kind instead of the regular deli ham. It made it tastier.
