Corn Chowder w/ Bread Bowls

My Menu for today included Corn Chowder w/ beer bread, but Gabe had mentioned that this soup would be great with a bread bowl, and I had remembered seeing a recipe for them on Tammy's. I looked it up, made them, and we loved them!

The girls were so funny; they slurped up the soup, then Melia took a bite out of the edge of the bowl. Kiera immediately copied her example, and pretty soon they were gone! Melia even rolled her own dough out for her bowl-- this makes her meals much more fun for her, knowing that she made it herself!

Gabe says this can be a weekly staple, he likes it so much. The soup is a Pampered Chef recipe; I will post it here probably sometime for Kitchen Tip Tuesdays. It is really easy and frugal, so perfect for a weekly addition!

Details: The bread bowls were really easy-- you mix it up, sit for 10 min, roll out, cover bowls, sit for 20 min, bake for 20 min, and cool. Not too much work, and very easy to do ahead of time. They are a very mild flavor, not to wheaty, not too sweet. Just a very basic bread, which goes well with a flavorful soup!

When we were at the other house I used to make these all the time. They are good with chili too. We would have extra bowl and dan and the kids would just eat em!
