Hi,
I'm looking for the name of a lunch dish French or Italian where you scoop out a round loaf of bread and fill it with meats, peppers etc..... put the top back on and press down to be eaten the next day.
It's driving me mad - anyone know what it's called?
Thanks

It is called Pan Bagnat. I made one only last week for a picnic (in the rain). Cut the top off a decent round loaf, hollow out leaving a 2-3 cm rim of bread and fill with your choice of mediterranean ingredients. I used grilled veg, peppers, courgette, aubergine, artichokes from the deli counter at the supermarket, mozarella, parma ham, some olives, basil (you could use a little pesto or tapenade if you have some lurking around in fridge. Replace top and wrap in cling film and put in fridge overnight weighted down with a couple of tins of beans to compress slightly. Then you are ready to go! Enjoy!

Do you mean Muffaletta?
Or there are many recipes online if you just search for Picnic Loaf or similar.
