This recipe lends itself to many variations. I have substituted canned chiles for the scallions, chipotle powder for the paprika, and except for the bread, I used low or non fat ingredients wherever possible.

I use French bread because it has better texture than plain white bread. Also, I double the recipe and bake it in 9x13 pan.
