Boil mixture until very thick, scraping up browned bits, about 5 minutes. Gradually mix in stock; add thyme and rosemary and bring to boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer 30 minutes. Add cream; simmer until slightly thickened, about 15 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Place 1 bread bowl on each plate. Place bread lid alongside. Ladle soup into bread bowls and serve.

Steps:
- Heat the oven to 350 degrees.
- Using a bread bowl, cut a circle all around the top of the bread. Cut almost all of the way down to the bottom, but not all of the way through. Carefully lift out the section of bread. Brush the inside of the bread bowl and the inside of the piece you lifted out with 1 tablespoon melted butter. Bake for about 20 minutes until the edges of the bread begin to turn golden brown. Remove from oven and set aside.
- In a large stock pot over low heat, melt the butter.
- Increase heat to medium and add the onions. Saute, stirring frequently, until the onion is soft and translucent, about 5 minutes.
- Add the garlic and cook for one more minute, stirring constantly.
- Stir in the flour and continue cooking over medium heat for about 3 minutes, stirring frequently.
- Whisk in the vegetable broth and the milk. Stir in the broccoli and the bay leaf. Cook over medium, stirring frequently, until the mixture begins to boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, uncovered and stirring frequently, for about 20 minutes until the broccoli is tender and the mixture thickens a bit.
- Remove from heat and allow the mixture to cool so that it's safer to puree.
- Remove the bay leaf.
- Using an immersion blender, or working in batches with your blender, puree the entire mixture. Return to the pan and return to a simmer over medium-low heat.
- Add the cheese, stirring constantly until melted.
- Taste and add salt if necessary and plenty of fresh ground black pepper.
- If adding ham to half the soup, move about 5 cups of the soup to a medium saucepan. Stir in the 1 3/4 cup diced ham and warm over medium low until the ham is heated through, about 5 minutes. If adding ham to all, stir in to the soup and heat for an additional 5 minutes.
- Ladle into bread bowls and sprinkle with additional shredded cheddar cheese. Serve with the "top" of the bread bowl for dipping.
SOURDOUGH BREAD BOWLS
From http://cooklikeyourgrandmother.com/2008/09/how-to-make-sourdough-bread-bowls/ This takes some work, so if you're not used to making bread from scratch check out the blog this recipe came from. He shows pics guiding you through every step! The more you do it, the easier and tastier it gets! I use 1 1/2 c whole wheat flour and 1 1/2 c unbleached white flour (to make the 3 cups of flour the bread bowls call for) to make this a little healthier. Also, I've found Zaar Recipe #174621 is a great filler for these bread bowls! Prep time includes rising time but not included is the 2-3 days for the sourdough starter.

Steps:
- For the sourdough starter:.
- In a medium bowl, stir the yeast into the lukewarm water. Let the mixture activate (should take about 15 minutes to bubble). Add the bread flour and stir. Cover with a dish towel and let sit for 2-3 days. It's best if you store the starter where the room temperature is warm (80-85 degrees). To keep the starter going, you have to "feed" it. For each 1 cup you take out, replace with 1/2 cup water and 1 cup flour.
- For the bread bowls:.
- Combine the flour and salt in a large mixing bowl. Make a well in the center.
- Give the starter a good stir as it separates after sitting a while. Add the cup of starter and the 1/2 cup of water to the flour and stir until it forms a rough dough. You will probably need to use your hands to work the dough until it comes together into a ball.
- On a clean work surface, lightly cover with flour and roll the dough in it. Knead until the dough is smooth, elastic, and satiny.
- Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl to rise. Cover with a clean dish towel and place in a warm place until the dough has doubled in size (about 2 hours).
- Remove the dough from the bowl and punch it down to knock most of the volume out of it.
- Then knead the bread briefly, just to get it back into a nice ball shape.
- Cut the dough in half, then cut each piece in half again.
- Knead each of the pieces just until they're round again. Form the pieces of dough into ball shapes and tuck any loose edges or seams underneath.
- Place the dough balls on an ungreased baking sheet as far apart as you can.
- Put the baking sheet somewhere warm to let the dough rise a second time until doubled in size (about 1 1/2 hours).
- Bake at 425 degrees for 15 minutes, then at 375 degrees for another 30 minutes. When done, they will make a hollow sound when you tap them on the bottom.
- Cut a circle in the top and hollow out much of the bread inside to make room for some delicious soup!

Steps:
- Using a sharp knife, carefully remove the center of the mini loaves to create a bowl. Remove additional bread from the inside by hand. Butter the inside of the loaves with the soft butter. Set aside.

- In a large mixing bowl, stir together onion, celery, parsley, melted butter, beaten egg, ground sage and red pepper flakes. Add cubed bread, salt and pepper then fold together to evenly distribute the mixture.
- Slowly drizzle milk over stuffing mixture while stirring until bread cubes are moist but not soggy. (May need a bit more or less milk).
- Spoon stuffing into individual bread bowls and set on a foil-lined baking sheet. Bake at 350 degrees F for about 45 minutes or until bread cubes on top are crispy.
- While the stuffing bakes, make crispy sage leaves. Heat oil in a small skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Fry 6 sage leaves at a time until crisp, about 15 seconds. Transfer with a fork to paper towels. Set aside.
