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.

Lasagne

(Lasagna or lasagne? I never know how to spell it.) In any case, vegetable lasagne is easy and delicious. Here's a variation on the classic red sauce version of vegetarian lasagne, with some extra vegetables.

Macaroni and Cheese

Macaroni and cheese is one of those dishes that sound boring, but can be just as delicious as a fancier pasta dish like lasagne or pesto.

Macaroni Salad Ⓥ

A simple but tasty dish. Macaroni salad is great for picnics and buffets, or as a side dish.

Mashed Potatoes Ⓥ

Mashed potatoes are the ultimate comfort food. They're quick and easy and the soft texture makes me feel like a kid. They're also a great base for all kinds of variations like garlic mashed potatoes and herby mashed potatoes.
