1 large Italian bread loaf
5 green onions finely chopped
4 cloves garlic minced
1/2 cup butter divided
2 cups shredded pepper-jack cheese
1 1/2 cups shredded Monterey jack or mozzarella cheese
6 slices bacon cooked and crumbled
1 cup real mayonnaise
2 Tbsp chopped pickled jalapenos use more or less to your taste
1/4 tsp each salt and black pepper

Preheat the oven to broil. Cut the Italian loaf in half and place side by side on a baking sheet. Spread each half with 3 Tbsp of butter and place into the oven to lightly toast. Meanwhile, melt remaining 2 Tbsp of butter in a skillet. Add green onions and garlic. Saute for 1-2 minutes over medium high heat then remove from the stove. In a mixing bowl by hand mix sauteed garlic and onions with pepper jack, Monterey jack, bacon, mayonnaise, jalapenos, salt and pepper. Mix well. Divide the mixture between the two toasted bread halves spreading from edge to edge. Return to the oven. Broil for 5 minutes or until the cheesy is golden and bubbly. Slice into desired size pieces and serve immediately.
