Step 1: In a skillet cook the ground beef with onion until browned (about 10-12 minutes). Add in garlic and chili flakes; cook 2 minutes. Drain fat.Remove meat mixture from heat; stir in sour cream. Season with seasoned salt and pepper to taste.

Step 2: Cut bread lengthwise in half; butter both halves (using the butter/garlic mixture) then place on baking sheets. Bake in a 350 degree F oven butter side up for about 5-7 minutes.
-
Step 3: After baking remove from oven and spoon/divide the beef mixture onto each top of bread slice. Sprinkle with tomatoes, green pepper and cheddar cheese (using as much as you want to use for these).
