This is sponsored content by BlogHer and Kellogg's.
This is the eleventh of twelve weekly posts sponsored by BlogHer and Kellogg's. EACH POST will have its own $100 gift card giveaway. The plan is to have each giveaway start on Tuesday and run until the following Monday.
This week's topic is Good Things in Bowls: What's your favorite meal in a bowl? Soup? Cereal? Yogurt with granola and fruit? Oatmeal?
My favorite meal in a bowl is chicken-rice-egg-corn. It sounds icky and it looks icky, but it is SUPREME DELICIOUSNESS. I make one of the larger-size bags of brown rice (the kind that cooks in a bag), and I add a cup of cooked barbecue-sauced chicken breast cut into little pieces, a can of Niblets sweet corn, and four scrambled eggs, and I heat it all up in a skillet. And then I add, like, a FISTFUL of salt. It is so, so yummy.
My second favorite meal in a bowl is soup. I have a good autumn soup recipe (recently I've been leaving out the broccoli and putting in a can of black beans and a can of chickpeas, and it is even more good and autumny).
I hope some of you will say your favorite meal in a bowl is cereal, because otherwise I am going to feel a little awkward about using a cereal-sponsored post to write about soup. Oh: I CAN say that my favorite BREAKFAST meal in a bowl is cereal, for sure! (Unless I am eating leftover chicken-egg-rice-corn...)

My favorite meal in a bowl actually IS cereal. Partly because I eat almost everything else from a plate... but really! Cereal and bowls are just such a lovely natural pairing.
I like a big bowl of spaghetti. Yum!
My favorite meal in a bowl is soup, especially this time of year!
I actually DO eat cereal (in a bowl!) almost every day. I do really like cereal.
We like to do burrito bowls ala Chipotle. We use rice, taco meat, lettuce, cheese, salsa, cooked corn (we freeze our own, so that's what we use), and sour cream/avocado if we have it on hand. Mix it all up in a bowl and YUM. Though, unfortch, not as good as Chipotle. (How I wish I could duplicate their barbacoa at home!)
Mmmm your chicken-egg bowl thingy sounds good. Will have to try that.
I make a "southwestern" type bowl that includes rice, chicken, black beans, canned corn, avocado, sour cream and salsa. It's easy and good.
My favorite meal in a bowl is this vegetarian 3-bean chili that to me embodies fall. I've been making it a lot lately--delish!
I make your soup all the time. I made some and froze it for when the baby was born. We ate it before he arrived. :)
Does a bread bowl count? My very favorite (especially in the Fall/Winter) is broccoli cheese soup in a sourdough bread bowl. Mmmmmmm. I also like Chicken Tortilla Soup with cheese, sour cream, avacado and cilantro toppers.
Oh, and cereal - OF COURSE. ;-)
My favorite meal is a big bowl of stuffing with cheese. Yum.
My favorite thing to eat out of bowl is ramen. We got those bowls like they used in Ponyo and that makes it really fun!
Second best is cereal for sure.
My favorite bowl meal is also slightly gross-sounding! I mix instant mashed potatoes (garlic, preferably) with canned corn, canned green beans, and tuna. Delicious, and no extra pan cleaning!
I love to make yogurt parfaits in a bowl. Vanilla yogurt + Fruit + granola (and then layer again) It's my favorite breakfast for sure.
I love oatmeal!

Ice cream. :) And cereal (which I swear I eat at least twice a day).
Homemade chicken noodle soup. Or ice cream. Or cereal. Or really just about anything in a bowl is yumy.

Cereal! Or macaroni and cheese. I will never understand why some people persist on serving that on a plate. It is BUILT for a bowl.
Lately I am into soup. In fact I might go get some for lunch right now!
Oatmeal is my favorite meal in a bowl, but it has to include a huge scoop of peaut butter.
I love a big bowl of chili with cornbread. Unfortunately, I live in Florida, so it is usually too hot for chili.
Cereal or mac and cheese. I agree, mac should NEVER be served on a plate. It should also never be eaten with a spoon.
You know those variety packs of cereal? Why don't they make those with only the good (read:sugary) varieties? I mean, I know I've seen that before, but it is never at my grocery store.
Definitely, beef stew with cornbread. Sometimes, most of the time, I add some cheese. It melts perfectly.

Spaghettios. Enough said!
sharonleigh at twcny dot rr dot com
Yogurt and granola. Hands down. Must say, the chicken/rice/egg etc thing sounds kind of awful but I'll trust you.
For sure cereal. I think I could eat cereal for every meal for the rest of my life.
cereal and soup are my favorite bowl foods.
I totally retweeted your announcement but am completely unsure how to get the information (URL) for it. Here is a copy of my tweet notice:

I hope it works well enough.
As for my favorite food in a bowl? These days it is usually some form of ice cream, or if I am being healthy, a soup. But a favorite from my childhood is rice and soy sauce, a little butter too. Simple as that. And now I must go make some. YUM!
My favorite food in a bowl tonight is beef stew. Last night it was hearty chili. Night before last it was my amazing macaroni and cheese.
Chili! Or any of my mom's homemade soups!
Plain, greek-style yogurt, with honey, cut up apples, berries (if I can get 'em), sprinkled with granola on top.
Makes me want breakfast NOW!
This time of year, I like soup. My kids get tired out of it, but I could eat it everyday.
Chicken and dumplings. Closely followed by cereal, of course.
My favorite meal in a bowl is my grandma's homemade vegetable beef soup!

Coca Puffs and milk is a bowl is my favorite.

My favorite is chicken tortilla soup, topped with crunchy tortilla strips, sour cream, avocado and shredded cheese. Yum!
Can't go wrong with cereal. Or yogurt with cereal mixed in. (I really like cereal.)
Since I eat cereal every morning, that is my favorite meal to eat in a bowl.
Homemade lentil soup is my favorite meal in a bowl.

I like cereal in very small bowls to avoid soggy cereal. In big bowls I like ice cream and/or asian rice bowls.

My favorite breakfast in a bowl as it gets cooler is oatmeal with maple syrup.

Agreed on the oatmeal -- yum! I cook in fruit and raisins and then add milk (and sometimes protein powder) so it really is a meal in a bowl!
My favorite meal to eat in a bowl would be cereal...I think my entire family would take cereal for any meal on any day..we LOVE the stuff!

My favorite meal in a bowl is ice cream! Yes, it's a meal. I had it for lunch last week. With a banana in it and nuts on top!

My blog post!
I love, love, love Frosted Flakes and I eat them in a bowl most of the time. However, sometimes I just eat them straight from the box.
My favorite meal in a bowl is layered plain macaroni noodles, then chili, then cheese, sour cream, & fresh cilantro. Yummy!
Other than cereal, I love to make instant mashed potatoes - the flavored kind in a box - and throw a handful of cooked broccoli in, and a bunch of cheese. Yummy - like the best part of a stuffed baked potato without the skin in the way!
My favorite breakfast food in a bowl is oatmeal or special k with fruits and yogurt if i'm dieting that day lol
dgoodridge84@yahoo.com
My favorite breakfast meal in a bowl is cereal or yogurt with granola. But for dinner, it has to be chili!
I love Special K…so yummy! One bowl wonder.

I do love my cereal (Frosted Mini-Wheats, plenty of 1% milk, and a splash of half-and-half for decadence) but my favorite things to eat in a bowl are the crazy concoctions my husband makes. He combines things that sound scary in discussion but always taste delicious, possibly because they tend to involve unhealthy stuff like sausage.
Leek and potato soup! Thanks!
kmassman gmail
soup! tom kha or homemade chicken and rice. but i do love my cereal as well. and my husband eats cereal for dessert so there is that.
My favorite one-bowl meal is "The Mushroom Soup" from PW's website....but if I knew how to make a fabulous chicken tortilla soup, I think it would be my favorite.
My favorite meal in a bowl is spaghetti with meat sauce...pure comfort!
My wife makes a great white chicken chili with a white cheddar and swiss cornbread thing baked on top. There is a layer of cheese between the two that oozes out when you push in the spoon.

SOUP, hands down! (Especially my mom's post-Thanksgiving turkey soup!)
Mine is a rice bowl full of beef fried rice and orange chicken.
When I'm really cold, I like a good hot bowl of stew or soup, or some chili or beans. If I don't want anything hot, I like to have Kellogg's Bran Flake or yogurt with fruit. Thanks for the giveaway.

I'm an old fan of Kellogg's Corn Flakes.
When I'm sick, it is always the first thing I want and in the middle of a dark night, I think of Corn Flakes.
I'm hopelessly hooked forever.

I love big bowls of pasta. uheeter at comcast.net
Mmmm I love things that come in bowls. Soup, pasta, ice cream, thai noodles, chicken tikka masala..... But I do eat cereal most often!
Chili...I make mine with sliced carrots inside it and serve it with sliced rye bread and butter.

My favorite meal in a bowl is leftovers after a turkey dinner: dressing, gravy & turkey all mixed up in a bowl. Thanks for the contest.

I'm a pretty big fan of ice cream, but Special K Red Berries is a much more respectable breakfast!
Ice cream! And cream of wheat, and of course cereal.
My favorite is chicken and yellow rice!
