I love these 1 qt serving bowls, although the name is somewhat of a misnomer. I use them for much more than serving. They are perfect for chef or Caesar salads--you can mix up your salad without the contents spilling out. My husband and I use them for spaghetti. We obviously don't fill them up, but again, you can add some extra sauce and meatballs without having to worry about the contents spilling out--especially if you are eating in front of the TV! I would not hesitate to recommend them!
