Notes
Line the baking sheet with parchment paper for easy clean up. It catches any egg overflow or melty cheese.
Make sure to pick unsliced rolls to make the bread bowls. 4 inch rolls are the perfect size. Kaiser and pretzel rolls are two of my favorites.
Sharp cheddar is my first cheese choice for ham and egg sandwich bread bowls. Also try mozzarella, Swiss, gouda or pepper jack too.
The bread bowls are best served hot out of the oven. Extras can be stored in an air tight container for a couple days in the refrigerator. These glass storage dishes are the ones I use. Reheat at 30 second intervals on 60 percent power until they are heated through.
