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.

Comfort Food / Desserts / Easy Recipes / Quickies

Bread Pudding

Simple bread pudding is the ultimate in comfort food, not to mention a great way to use up stale bread.
Appetizers & Side Dishes / Comfort Food / Easy Recipes / Quickies / Spring

Broiled Asparagus

Broiled asparagus topped with cheesy bread crumbs is the perfect dish for spring.

Broiled Ricotta Gnocchi

Gnocchi are usually treated like a variety of pasta and served with sauce. But these broiled ricotta gnocchi are great served plain or as dumplings.

Brownies

The ultimate treat for chocolate lovers.

Buttermilk Biscuits

There's nothing quite like buttermilk biscuits hot out of the oven.

Cabbage Rolls Ⓥ

Normally filled with a mixture of ground beef and rice, cabbage rolls are a staple in Eastern Europe and a favorite in many other countries. Try these vegetarian cabbage rolls stuffed with rice and vegetables for an equally tasty main course.

Cauliflower Gratin Ⓥ

A fluffy gratin featuring cauliflower, somewhat reminiscent of quiche but lighter and egg-free.

Cauliflower Millet Purée Ⓥ

The same comforting quality as mashed potatoes but with a nutty flavor and lots more vitamins.

Celeriac Leek Gratin Ⓥ

Earthy celeriac is livened up by oniony leeks to make a wonderful fall gratin.
Breakfast / Brunch / Comfort Food / Eastern European Recipes / Easy Recipes / Hanukkah / Jewish Recipes / Kids' Recipes / Quickies / Vegan Recipes

Cheese Blintzes Ⓥ

nus often have various kinds of fruit blintzes listed, but for me cheese blintzes are the only option. The creamy cheese filling complements the warm crêpe so nicely, I can't imagine filling it with anything else.
