Ingredients
1 loaf of Italian Bread *Please note this was not calculated in the above; there was no info on a loaf of italian bread so you must calculate the caloric value of the bread yourself)1.5 lbs. ground sirloin (90/10)2 cloves minced garlic1 medium carrot, finely diced1/2 medium zucchini, finely diced1/2 medium onion, diced1/2 t ground allspice1 T Worcestershire Sauce1/2 cup red cooking wine1/2 cup canned beef broth1 (14.5 oz) can diced tomatoes1/2 t salt1/2 t fresh ground pepper1/2 t dried oregano1/3 cup Colby & Jack shredded cheese
Directions
Prehead oven to 450F
Split bread lenghtwise and hollow out most of the inside of each bread half leaving the shell. Crisp bread in oven about 5 minutes.

In a large skillet over med heat, cook the sirloin, garlic, onion, zucchini and carrots until the meal is done. Drain excess grease. Add W. sauce, allspice, wine, broth, tomatoes, salt, pepper and oregano. Cook 10 minutes or until most of the liquid has reduced. Transfer meat mixture to the bread shells (I used a slotted spoon) to fill the inside of the bread. Top with cheese. Heat broiler and broil for just a minute to toast top and melt cheese. DON'T BURN IT NOW! Each shell can be sliced into 5 or 6 slices.

If you want to save the other half for another day, fill it with the meat mixture, let it cool, then wrap, lable and freeze. To prepare later, defrost OR cook directly from freezer at 375 for 15 minutes. If defrosted, heat the broiler and broil just until cheese melts.

Both halves makes about 10 slices cut 3-4 inches wide.
