Jack-O-Lantern Bread Bowls via @KitchenKelli

Jack-O-Lantern Chili Bowls - Kellis Kitchen

Aren’t these great? I have Rootin’ Tootin 2 Day chili in these but every year we put something – chili, homemade soup, cheese fondue, stew, just whatever you can think up (chocolate fondue or pudding would be fantastic!) in them. They are so easy and if you are having a Halloween party for kids or adults, these would be great. Top Girl made these for our Halloween get together.

They are sourdough bread bowls from Panera Bread or you can get them at Costco too – Baking Essentials Company supplies Bake-At-Home breads that you can make these with which you buy at Costco! Kids love them and so do adults!

They hold up so well with no leaking. Carve the Jack-O-Lantern face 1/2 way through the front of the bowl with a sharp knife! Then carve out the top and pull out enough bread to make a bread bowl. Fill with Chili and top with shredded cheese, if you like.

    Those are so cute and if the bread is from Panera, I know it’s great. So easy and so much fun.

    Hmm…I better go find my bread recipes. “Got lots of yeast, will bake.” We will see what I can come up with. LOL I don’t eat out much and do have that sandwich shop near by so I had no idea they made bowl breads. Thanks for the idea.

    These look great! I did not even think about buying bread bowls from Panera. There’s one just down the street!

      It actually takes the place of crackers or cornbread. I’mn trying to perfect a recipe for cornbread bowls so I can put stew in it! ๐Ÿ™‚

    This is such a cute idea Kelli! I’m with The Essential Baking Company and we make artisan, organic breads in Seattle, WA. You can find our Bake-at-Home breads, that come in our Stay-fresh packaging, nationwide at your local Costco stores. I’m going to share this on our Facebook and Twitter with a link to your post! Thank you! Kendra

      That’s wonderful Kendra! I would love to find it at Costco but we only have one Costco so far in this state although we are hoping for one closer over here soon! Thank you for sharing correctly with a link back and please come back again!

      Kendra – I edited the post to say you could go to costco and buy your bake-at-home breads so when they do come to my page, they will know they can get it at Costco. I linked it. Thanks!
