Comfort Food

Some foods are like a warm hug, they cheer you up and make everything feel better. So many classic dishes are comfort foods like baked mac and cheese, ham and beans or scalloped potatoes and ham.

I love casseroles like chicken broccoli casserole, chicken tetrazzini and million dollar spaghetti casserole. Of course nothing beats a homemade soup like turkey noodle soup, chicken pot pie soup or taco soup.

It is amazing that some comfort foods can now be made even quicker with dishes such as Instant Pot pork chops and Instant Pot chili.
