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.

Ricotta Gnocchi

Gnocchi are little Italian dumplings served with sauce. Usually made with potatoes, the best gnocchi are like soft pillows. Personally, I find they are even more delectable when made with ricotta cheese.

Roasted Red Pepper Dip Ⓥ

The first time I tasted this roasted red pepper dip, it was so good that I actually gasped.

Salisbury Seitan Ⓥ

This vegan alternative to salisbury steak is much tastier than what I remember about that school lunch room classic.

Scalloped Potatoes Ⓥ

Thinly sliced potatoes baked to perfection in a savory, creamy, dairy-free sauce.

Scrambled Tofu Ⓥ

Although scrambled tofu doesn't taste quite the same as scrambled eggs, it's easy to make and can take any of the additions and toppings on my omelette ideas page.

Seitan Beef Stew Ⓥ

A rich, thick stew made with seitan and lots of good veggies. It's especially tasty served with hot French bread on a cold night.

Seitan Beef Stroganoff Ⓥ

I just love this recipe: pasta smothered in a creamy sauce with mushrooms and chunks of mock meat.

Seitan Bolognese Sauce Ⓥ

A thick, rich sauce that's hearty enough to be eaten like stew.
