Question of the Day July 18th

Morning All!!!

Today's question deals with food:

What is your most favorite comfort food?


For me it is soup of any-kind, canned or homemade it doesn't really matter I find when I need a bit of cheering up a nice hot bowl of soup will do it for me. Add a grilled cheese sandwich to the mix and I am in heaven.

Macaroni and cheese.

Something a British Lieutenant with the BAS showed me how to make many years ago.

Soft boiled "dippy" eggs and soldiers.

always a steak.... ... ...

I have a couple, mac and cheese and butter pecan ice cream .

A lovely pot roast or homemade beef stew.

Mom's homemade meatloaf.

Mac 'n' cheese with crispy bacon pieces, or fresh baked bread warm enough for the butter to soak in.

But not the fake ones you get here in Texas with fake cheese poured over some chips and some cold jalapeños thrown on or maybe not. No, I make my own. Chips are buttered on both sides and then toasted and then spread with refried beans without lard and then REAL Mexican cheese added and then of course the jalapeños are added and baked in the oven. These are the real nachos I learned from living with people in Mexico and something you CANNOT find in Dallas no matter how authentic the restaurant may claim to be. Yep gotta make my own comfort food. Oh if you want to get me started on another tangent ask about favorite drinks and I will rant and rave that it is impossible to get a REAL margarita in Texas.

Anything chocolate!!!!

However, if you are talking real food, then I would have to pick beef stew!

Potato chips and onion dip.

Mac And Cheese for me!

Chicken and dumpling. Mmmmm

But it's not just any chicken and dumplings. It's my mom's fried chicken recipe and my grandmother's dumpling recipe. It's nothing like you picture when you think of chicken and dumplings.

(DH knows I'm having a bad time when I opt to make this)

I'll snack on potato chips and homemade onion dip.
Otherwise good mashed potatoes.

Egg noodles, the really wide ones and flat, not the curley ones, with lots of butter, salt & pepper (lots of pepper) parmesian cheese and a little bit of garlic. It impossible for me to be sad eating a big bowl of noodles!
A close second would be any kind of roasted meat, beef, pork, chicken, turkey, doesn't matter, with gravy and mashed potatoes. No gravy directly on the taters though, lots of butter.
Hmmm, I guess I would have to list butter, lol.

Ice Cream. If its a real food then anything potatoes or mac n cheese.

A big fat chicken korma!!

What can I say? FOOD is comfort! But then there's mew-purr-snuggle-into-mums-arms comfort. For that it would be pretty much anything that involves baked pasta (M&C, Baked Spaghetti, Lasagna, etc), or pretty much anything that involves a lot of gravy (roasts, stews, Toad).

I lived in the UK a couple of years and somehow managed to miss out on that. (Or maybe I had had too many pints of bitter.) But right up the street I can get authentic Steak & kidney pie. It's called the Londoner and it is a real pub with all kinds of comfort food (and 20 English ales on draft.)
