TOP 10 COMFORT FOODS

 OUR TEN FAVORITE COMFORT FOOD RECIPES
I hope you enjoy them

STARTING IN REVERSE:


This is a favorite of one of our granddaughters. Light as air and full of big air pockets that hold melted butter and jam, these are inexpensive, super easy and sure to please.




This is one of those busy day recipes that EVERYONE loves. The raw  noodles are cooked right in the sauce, so they are loaded with flavor. This one is a real keeper.

Glazed donuts are fun to make on the weekends.
They put grocery store donuts to shame !!

You can make this pie a day or two ahead of time if necessary.
 It is a MUST for peanut butter lovers.

#6.  YUMMY RED RICE

Some recipes are just for me. Picky-picky husband wouldn't even think of giving this recipe a taste (it has red peppers in it), but it is one of my all time favorites. IF you have any leftovers (which I seldom do with this recipe)
it makes a wonderful lunch the next day.

#5.  CLASSIC JELLY ROLL CAKE



If you want to impress your company, try this easy jelly roll recipe. It gives step by step instructions on how to roll the cake. It is delicious and oh so pretty.

This photo does not do this cake justice. It is super moist, rich and delicious warm or cold. Personally, we love it on the warm side (not hot) with a big scoop of vanilla ice cream. Your family will love this perfect ending to a family meal.


#3.  CHUCK ROAST SLOPPY JOES IN THE CROCKPOT


We have always enjoyed sloppy joes, so I decided to try and make an upscale version that I could serve to company; the result was fantastic. Everyone loves this recipe of lean chuck roast cooked in the crockpot with sloppy joe seasonings.
It is comfort food at its best !!!

This unassuming little sponge cake is a true winner.
It can be used for a zillion different recipes.
It is light as air and makes the perfect shortcake.


The NUMBER ONE comfort food recipe of the year HAS to be this Mexican pulled pork and pinto beans (done in the crockpot); I serve it over rice.  Not only is it super easy, but it is ultra-flavorful and the leftovers make outrageous burritos !!
