Crab-Stuffed Baguette Bread

Step 1: Slice. baguette into approximately 6" lengths. Using a long thin knife, hollow out the interior of each piece, leave a 3/4-inch wall all the way around the interior of the bread, removing only the very center. Set the bread aside.

Step 2: In a medium-sized mixing bowl, add crab, breaking the chunks into very small pieces with a fork. Add cream cheese, celery, lemon zest, lemon juice, seasoned salt, dill and green onion. Mix to combine, making sure cream cheese is evenly incorporated.

Step 3: Add only as much mayonnaise as needed to bind the mixture together. Season with pepper.

Step 4: Pack the center of each piece of baguette with the crab filling, do not leave any space empty.

Step 5: Wrap each piece of baguette with plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 4 hours or until filling is firm. Remove from the fridge, using a sharp serrated knife (or electric knife) slice into 3/4- 1 inch thick slices or desired size slices.
