Ingredients
  

  • For the Bread Bowls:
  • 4 large round bread rolls
  • For the Seafood Filling:
  • 1 cup cooked shrimp chopped
  • 1 cup cooked crab meat shredded
  • 1 cup cream cheese softened
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 cup fresh parsley chopped

Instructions
 

  • Step 1: Prepare the Bread
  • Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  • Hollow Out the Rolls: Cut off the tops of the bread rolls and gently hollow out the centers, leaving about 1/2 inch of bread around the edges to create sturdy bowls. Set aside the removed bread for another use (e.g., breadcrumbs).
  • Step 2: Make the Filling
  • Combine Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, add cream cheese, Parmesan cheese, and mayonnaise. Stir until smooth and creamy.
  • Add Seasonings: Mix in minced garlic, lemon juice, and black pepper for a burst of flavor.
  • Incorporate Seafood and Herbs: Gently fold in the chopped shrimp, shredded crab meat, and fresh parsley. Ensure the mixture is evenly combined.
  • Step 3: Fill the Bread Bowls
  • Spoon the Filling: Generously pack the seafood mixture into each hollowed-out bread roll, slightly mounding the top for an appealing presentation.
