Cook the Book: Win a Copy of 'Cook with Jamie'

My father started me on cooking because he cooked and grilled on nights that he wasn't on a trip. He taught me some simple skills, and didn't realize the gift of a homecooked meal until I was in college. I found dorm food to be disgusting and instantly wanted to cook again. I started cooking for anyone, teaching myself more skills by trail and error, magazines and food shows. My passion for food only grows and now I'm the teacher because I am now teaching my boyfriend to cook.

I actually have an appliance which I received as a gift, about the size of a Forman Grill, that makes four pastry cups/shells at a time. I made potato baskets a couple times, but it's way too much trouble to use for the space it takes up, so I stashed it away years ago.

I think I'll dig it out?

I saw this one on Not Martha, too. Talk about creativity meeting genius! :)

we used to make bologna bowls - microwave bologna on a plate until the edges curl up to form a bowl - as kids....but i think these bacon cups sound way better

It's like I've been living in Plato's Cave, and am only now emerging into the fatty, salty, crispy light of fully-realized Food Bowl-ness.

Anything in a bacon bowl would be great... Because everything else is just a delivery system for the bacon.

I love bacon, but that is a little insane. More bacon than I eat in a week.

nice pictures...*drewl*

I've tried something similar from Micheal Smith but filled it with alternating layers of shaved potatoes and aged cheddar flipped upside down and slowly baked with a weight OMG a total guest impresser!

Megan of _Not_Martha_ had one terrific idea. This is so obvious, but bacon bowls would be great filled with scrambled eggs topped with [insert your favorite melted cheese] and chives. Might try that this weekend.
