"Parmesan Cheese Bowl

By

Serving salad in a Parmesan Cheese Bowl could not be easier or more fun!

Ingredients

  • You will also need:
  • 1/3 1/3 1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • parchment paper
  • 2 2 2 small microwave safe nesting bowls

Preparation

Step 1

Directions
Find two microwave safe bowls with a 5-inch diameter opening, that nest inside one another.

Line a large flat plate with a circle of parchment paper; trace a circle around the opening of one of the bowls. Spread a thin layer of grated Parmesan cheese onto the parchment, a bit larger than the traced outline.

Microwave on high for about 1 minute until melted and golden.

Quickly drape the parchment, cheese-side up, over an upside-down bowl; immediately top with the other bowl.

Let sit and cool for 2 minutes.

Remove top bowl and gently invert the Parmesan bowl. Carefully remove the parchment.

Allow to fully harden, about 15 minutes. Fill with salad and enjoy!

Recipe Notes
• You can certainly use bigger bowls (which would require more cheese), but a 5-inch diameter is a good size for a house salad.

• Feel free to sprinkle in some dried herbs before microwaving for added flavor.
