Good Luck!
I love those little pots! So cute. I think they would be perfect for hot party dips.
pop overs
I would make Irish Stew.
I would make macaroni and cheese!
I think these would be great for Mac and cheese and French onion soup.
I’d make French onion soup in them.
I’ve been eyeing these at Sur la Table, but they never seem to have the colors I want. I’d use these to serve dips at my next book club meeting :)
I would make French onion soup with grilled cheese croutons!
I would make your sweet potato coconut milk soup in them. I would also try making a homemade chicken soup. These would be adorable ways to hold personal chicken pot pies, too, if I can find an egg-free, gluten-free, soy-free, and grain-free recipe (or somehow come up with my own!). Thanks. I would love to have these color my kitchen!
These are so cute and I would use them for mac and cheese and desserts! Would love to have them and just use them for everything!!!
I think individual brownies would be yummy or little side dishes like gratin potatoes…thanks for hosting!
I only cook for myself and they look the perfect size to cook single portions!
Mac and cheese
I would use the large pieces to make my favorite loaded baked potato soup and hamburger stew.
Definitely individual chicken pot pies!
I would make a dip or mac and cheese.
