At every major meal event, I have to limit my mother to one "food in a food" -- meaning one dish where the plate/bowl is also edible. It's true that serving food this way can make for a killer presentation, but there's a fine line between killer and overkill, so I try to limit her to one dish. That said, here are some fabulous for serving food inside of food this fall...1. Fall yams served in orange cups, from Epicurious.
2. Pumpkin souffles inside pumpkins, from Martha Stewart
3. Roasted butternut squash pastina served inside a pumpkin (or inside winter squash, perhaps?) from Food Network
4. Clam chowder in a bread bowl from yumsugar
5. Cappuccino Mousse in chocolate cups from All Recipes
6. Stuffed bell peppers from Simply Recipes (this counts because the recipe just looks so good!)
7. Lemon sorbet in frozen lemon shells from Homemade Ice Cream Desserts
8. Fruit salad served in melon from Fine Living
Have a beautiful serving idea of your own? Please share!
