COMFORT FOOD RECIPES
http://teriskitchen.com/comfort.html

 

There is something about winter, more than any other season, that evokes memories of, and cravings for, our favorite comfort food. Many of those recipes take us back to our childhood. Others just make us feel warm and cozy inside. I look forward to the opportunity to make my old standbys, or have fun and try new ones. The problem is that, the older I get, the more foods I find "comforting". I suppose that is because eating is my favorite activity. I even like to cook because it fills me with "comfort". However, there are certain foods that I crave on occasion that make me feel like everything is right with the world. What that food is depends on the mood I am in at the moment. It might be as simple as a fried egg with buttered toast, as time-consuming as a meat stew, or as satisfying as a sweet dessert. That being said, I have attempted to compile on this page my favorite comfort food recipes, many of which are quick and easy, others a bit more labor intensive, some that are healthy and light, and those that are a bit more indulgent. I hope some will become your favorites. If you don't find what you are craving, browse through the Recipe Files for many more options.
