Graham crackers in milk.

Not a food as such but a hot cup of flavorful black coffee helps when I need a lift. Never been a comfort food person.

Exactly what Judy said.

Stove top stuffing with extra butter. Gravy on top if available.

Something warm and chocolate.

Warm piece of some sort of yeasty bread/roll with butter and chicken soup without noodles.

Potato chips

Thanksgiving dinner

seagrass

Nothing sweet. I'm comforted by things like mac and cheese, chicken and dumplings, even a cheese and onion enchilada. Filling simple food, that someone has preferably cooked expertly for me, put on a plate and handed to me. That hasn't happened as often as I would like in the last year ;0)

Really good bread with really good cheese.

I make a mug of instant mashed potatoes with butter, sour cream, and cheddar.

Bookwoman, I'll be right over with some wine and fruit.

Cream of Wheat made thick

Hot cocoa with a splash of Bailey's Irish Creme.

Tapioca Pudding (seconded only by Tiramisu... the real kind. )

Homemade Hot Cocoa and Cinnamon Streusel Toast. Apparently I need comfort every morning--Yum!

Homemade perogies topped with onions cooked in butter. My own homemade lasagna. Lemon slice. Rice pudding.

Egg, rice, cheese and cabbage. Something my mom used to make and I make now, so do my kids.

graham crackers with leftover frosting from a cake

Eggs, toast and butter

Islay

Bread and marmalade.

Baked custard. Macaroni Cheese. Spaghetti Bolognese. Bullseye fried eggs. Ice-cold chocolate milk.

One of my favorite indulgences that I haven't made in decades is warm chocolate pudding...maybe it's time to make it again...

I used to love what we called "tuna noodle mash" which was simply a can of tuna in cream of mushroom soup and 1/2 can of milk served over elbow mac. Also haven't had it in decades.

Mom used to do her squash in the cream of mushroom soup like that as well...haven't made it that way in decades either.

Thanks for triggering some good memories!

A traditional fish fry at the lake with freshly caught Crappie, Hushpuppies, Cole Slaw, tartar and cocktail sauce, and my dad's secret recipe Vidalia onion rings.

Bean and Cheese Nachos

Having one of my comfort breakfasts as I type. Omelet, with cheese and mushrooms. Today it is pepperjack cheese. The other breakfast one is rolled oats oatmeal topped with whole milk and brown sugar, and grandmother's pat of butter.

I NEVER found mac and cheese or meatloaf to be comforting. I'll down portions of a good roast chicken, however (dark meat), or just about anything concerning seafood. Or a good Dim Sum from a real Chinatown.

To me, there is no such thing as "comfort food". All food are comforting.

But to start a day, I enjoy a hot double espresso latte with a pair of marhmallow Root Beer Peeps swimming in it.

My favorite is watching shrimp boat coming in from ocean, hurrying down to dock ; buying shrimp with heads on. Cleaning and cooking as we walk back in house. Fried shrimp is my comfort food.

I make a macaroni that's cooked in custard and topped with butter and sugar. I think it's a German recipe passed down from my grandmother to my mother to me. I've been off work since the 1st of last month and I think I've had it five times. Normally just a couple times a year because I was at work.

Comfort food is when someone else cooks for me!

Oooohhhhhh........green chili.

Baked potato with butter and salt, skin and all.

Corn fritters with maple syrup that my mom use to make when I was a kid. Since I don't do fried foods, I haven't had them in over fifty years.

nickle, so I am not alone in my enjoyment of graham cracker with peanut butter and chocolate chips!

I have only half a graham cracker and I melt a small spoon of peanut butter with a few choc chips and spread it on there. I dont keep many sweets of any kind around and that is my go to when I want something cookie like sweet.

Comfort= a good cornbread for me

For hubs it is all about pasta and more pasta

Ordinary white rice with butter, pepper and salt.

A warm (not hot) cup of coffee made with cream and sugar and soak a plain not toasted bagel in it.

artemis_ma, I'm with you regarding mac & cheese - I won't touch it - I have a gag reaction to it. I'm okay with meatloaf, however - at least the way I make it.

I like lasagna, and that is as close to mac & cheese as anything that I like. I do not like any kind of cream sauce on pasta, such as the American version of "Alfredo." Today I am planning to make spinach pasta for my brother's birthday, and I might make it into ravioli. Otherwise, I will cut it into fettuccine and serve it with a marinara sauce.

Sharp cheddar cheese on bread and butter with a dollop of Branston pickle.

For me the ultimate comfort food is something my Grandma used to make for me--cornmeal gravy. It's like polenta, except she browned the cornmeal in Crisco or bacon grease (ugh!), then added milk to make the gravy. I'm sure it's a southern specialty of some sort, as she was from Arkansas. It's sooooo delicious, but definitely NOT a healthy dish!

My deceased mother's chicken and waffles. Homemade waffles hot off the iron and served warm with chicken and gravy.

In the winter Chicken and Sliders which is chicken and homemade thickish noodles swimming in a thick gravy. In the summer a toasted fresh field tomato sandwich.

Lily, I would like your mother's chicken and waffles because she served it with gravy instead of syrup. I would never want syrup on chicken, but I would like chicken gravy on waffles.

Another comfort food for me is tamales.

One of my comfort foods is French fried potatoes with milk gravy made with bacon fat. And pinto beans and cornbread with fried potatoes. Hm, sensing a trend here😉

Home-made matzo ball soup with a freshly baked buttered pretzel roll.

I'm not sure I have a 'comfort' food. But maybe a brown sugar sandwich would come close.

I love stoned wheat crackers with hard butter on them.

On a weekend...pizza and pistasio ice cream

samkarenorkaren

Just opened this an had to laugh. That was our dinner tonight. Combo and pistachio almond ice cream.

Cinnamon (and sugar) on buttered toast with a hot cup of tea although, like Amylou, turkey stuffing and mashed potatoes smothered in gravy (forget the 🦃) sounds wonderful.

the blue box mac and cheese with spoonfuls of hot salsa mixed in. one day my mother said don't ask i made a mistake. I tried it, ate much of it

Week or so later asked if she remembered how she made it. she laughed and said yes here's how. its a once or twice a year dish that reminds me of her laughing
