Cooking Steps

1

BREAD BOWL: Adjust rack to middle position and preheat oven to 350 degrees. Cut a 2- to 4-inch circle in the top of the loaf and remove. Scoop out the inside of the bread to create a bowl. Brush inside of bread bowl with 1 TBSP olive oil or melted butter; bake on middle rack until lightly toasted and warmed through, 7-8 minutes.

2

RECOMMENDED: Bring a pot of water to a boil. Place bag in pot; cook for 20 minutes, then carefully remove. (Caution: Bag will be very hot.) Cut one corner with scissors and pour into bread bowl. Top with cheese before serving.

3

MICROWAVE ALTERNATIVE: Cut one corner of the bag; pour soup into a microwave-safe container. (Do not microwave in cup.) Cover loosely with microwave-safe plastic wrap or a paper towel. Microwave, stirring halfway through, 5-6 minutes. (Caution: Container and soup will be very hot.) Pour into bread bowl and top with cheese before serving.

Review summary

Updated on Dec 2025
  • Flavor: Many enjoyed the rich, savory taste, though some found it too sweet or bland. Consider adding extra seasoning to taste.
  • Ease of prep: Simple to prepare; just heat, pour into the bread bowl, and add cheese for a quick, comforting meal 🍲.
  • Suggestions: Toast bread bowl well and serve soup separately to prevent sogginess. Adding extra cheese, especially melted on top, enhances flavor.
  • Portions: Some wished for more broth; consider serving additional soup on the side to maintain bread bowl integrity.
  • Texture: A few found the soup too watery for a bread bowl. Try reducing liquid slightly or using a sturdier bread.
