1️⃣ Preheat Oven and Prepare Baking Sheet:

• Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with foil for easy cleanup.

2️⃣ Make the Filling:

• In a medium mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, Ranch dressing, garlic salt, and onion powder until smooth.
• Stir in the chopped chicken, crumbled turkey bacon, chopped green onions, and 1 cup of the shredded Colby-Jack cheese. Mix until everything is well combined.

3️⃣ Prepare the Bread:

• Slice the Italian bread in half lengthwise and remove some of the bread from the center of each half to create a hollow space for the filling.

4️⃣ Layer the Filling:

• Sprinkle 1 cup of shredded cheese on the bottom half of the bread.
• Spread the chicken mixture evenly over the cheese layer, then sprinkle with the remaining 1 cup of shredded cheese.

5️⃣ Assemble and Butter the Bread:

• Place the top half of the bread over the filling and press down gently to secure.
• Brush the entire loaf with melted butter for a golden, crispy crust.

6️⃣ Wrap and Bake:

• Wrap the stuffed loaf in foil and place it on the prepared baking sheet.
• Bake for 30-40 minutes, until the bread is heated through and the cheese is melted and bubbly.

7️⃣ Slice and Serve:

• Let the bread rest for about 5 minutes after baking, then slice into 1-inch thick pieces. Serve warm and enjoy!
