  • 4 Mini Italian Bread loaves, hollowed (On Sale: 10/$10)

  • black pepper for garnish

Directions

Step 3: Meanwhile, hollow out the mini Italian bread loaves to create small bread bowls.

Step 4: Ladle the chowder into the bread bowls.

Step 5: Garnish with a shrimp draped over the rim and a sprinkle of black pepper for a bubbling cauldron look.

Chef's Tip: Toast the hollowed bread bowls for 5 minutes before filling so they hold up to the chowder.

Save by using Using the Shrimp Ring special and a quarter pound of snow crab instead of a full pound stretches a prepared chowder base into a rich, crowd-pleasing appetizer. and Serve with Oyster crackers or a crisp green salad.
