Yow know what’s ridiculous? Chili in a bread bowl. You know what’s even more ridiculous? Homemade chili in a bread bowl. For real.
First we made awesome chili. Do you have a favourite chili recipe? We throw multiple varieties of beans into a pot with ground beef or turkey, onion, mushrooms, pasta sauce, and spices. It is a definite hit at our house.
Next we made a bread bowl. We used a loaf from our bread machine, cut it in half lengthwise, and hollowed it out in the shape of a bowl. I think it is over the top and awesome that we did this, but please know this was John’s idea. My brain wouldn’t come up with something this awesome/ridiculous, as I usually think foolish things like: “I can’t eat half a loaf of bread.” I sometimes underestimate myself!
We toasted the bead bowl in the oven (after basting it in a garlic powder/olive oil mixture) and then we put chili in the bread bowl!
We had a crazy fun dinner and laughed at how silly we are sometimes.

I love chili with beans, my husband likes it without, so I don't make it, because I refuse to make two batches of the stuff! But I like your bread bowls. Looks yummy.
ReplyDeleteThanks! They were over the top good!
DeleteGo John for coming up with such a fun idea. I laughed at your, "I can't half a loaf of bread."
ReplyDeleteThanks - yes he has lots of fun ideas for food and I love it!
DeleteThe bread bowl is a cool idea. We like ours hot, so I add some juice from the jalapeño peppers jar. WooHoo!
ReplyDeleteYum that sounds good! :)
