It is now time to make the cheese bowl: cut the crusts off the bread and save it for later.

Cover the bread with 6 slices of cheese. Lay the remaining single slice of bread over the cheese, then make a circle with the line of 4 slices of bread, pressing to seal the edges. Put the remaining slice of chedar on the bottom.
Using a small bowl, press down on the bread bowl to compress slightly.
Bake the bread bowl for 15 minutes.
Make the crouton fries by adding all ingredients t to the bowl with the crusts. Toss until well coated, put in baking sheet and bake for 5 minutes.
