Comfort Food

What is comfort food? Something that makes us feel safe? Something that reminds us of home? Whatever it is, comfort foods tend to be soft, warm, and easy to prepare. Potatoes, pasta, and soups feature prominently. Here are some of my favorite comfort foods.

American Recipes / Autumn / Comfort Food / Desserts / Vegan Recipes

Apple Pie Ⓥ

Does anything taste quite as good as warm apple pie?
Autumn / Comfort Food / Desserts / Eastern European Recipes / Easy Recipes / Hanukkah / Jewish Recipes / Kids' Recipes / Vegan Recipes

Applesauce

Sure you could just buy it at the store, but homemade applesauce is one of the all-time great treats.
Comfort Food / Easy Recipes / Quickies / Raw / Soups / Summer / Vegan Recipes

Avocado Soup Ⓥ

Chilled soups are wonderful in the summertime, and they tend to be incredibly easy to prepare. This spicy, creamy avocado soup is no exception.

Baked Garbanzo Beans Ⓥ

A quick and easy alternative to canned baked beans. Serve with veggie hot dogs for a vegan kid treat.

Baked Polenta Ⓥ

I love polenta, but I hate cooking it on the stove. Turns out there's a ridiculously easy way to make it - in the oven!

Baked Ricotta Cheese

Baked ricotta cheese with herbs makes a savory, slightly spongy cake - a very simple yet delicious appetizer.

Baked Ziti Ⓥ

Pasta tubes baked with tomato sauce and mozzarella are sure to please.

Barley Soup Ⓥ

This barley soup recipe from Sicily is a perfect vegan alternative to chicken soup when you're feeling under the weather.

Béchamel Sauce Ⓥ

This simple white sauce goes well with flavorful vegetables like broccoli, asparagus, and Brussels sprouts, and in lasagne.

Black Bean Zucchini Quesadillas Ⓥ

Black beans, zucchini, and a bit of cheese sandwiched between two tortillas - this may be the best quesadilla you've ever tasted.
