My favorite comfort food is my mom's oven baked beef roast with Yorkshire pudding (mom was from New England, most Texans don't know about Yorkshire pudding), mashed potatoes, and brown gravy with a little Kitchen Bouquet added. I also love her Boston Baked beans, served with brown bread. I was overjoyed when I found her baked bean recipe after her passing, I also have the bean pot she used.

This is odd, but my main comfort food is my Mom's enchiladas. I have tried to make them her way and they are not the same. |

DO NOT PRE HEAT OVEN! No baking powder or baking soda is needed 3 sticks butter 3 C sugar 5 eggs 1tbsp vanilla extract 3 C flour 1 12 oz can evaporated milk Grease and flour bunt or tube cake tin. Melt butter and place in a large mixing bowl.Add eggs one at a time.Add evaporated milk. Add sugar. Cream it all together for about 2 minutes on high. Bring speed back down to low and add vanilla. Add flour 1 cup at a time using a spatula to guide it through the beaters. Once flour is all added,increase speed to high and mix for 3 minutes. Pour into greased and floured tube pan and place in cold oven. Set oven at 325F and set timer for 1H 45M. DO NOT FOR ANY REASON WHATSOEVER OPEN THE OVEN DOOR.LIKE A SUFLET'THE CAKE WILL FALL IF YOU DO. Once the time is up,remove the cake and let it cool for about two hours. You can use any type or flavor extract other than vanilla.Sometimes I do it with pure almond,rum,butter rum,cinamin,or pumpkin pie spice.The crust gets hard like apple crisp once it's cooled.Yummy |

One of my favorite comfort foods is this casserole, it is served by the Ladies Aid at our church for funeral luncheons. Here is the recipe in a smaller version: 1 lb. ground chuck, browned with a small onion 1 small can peas, undrained 1 small can corn, undrained 1 can vegetable soup 1 can tomato soup 1 small pkg. egg noodles, cooked Salt and pepper to taste Add more water to make the above quite moist. Mix all together and bake @ 350 degrees for 1 hour. |

While we are fluent in all manner "comfort foods" up here in the oft-frozen north, having an Italian mother means the Italian classics are at the top of my list. As boring as it may seem, if I had to choose one meal over all others, it would be spaghetti, a simple, briefly-cooked red sauce, and meatballs. I wouldn't be upset if a nice piece of garlic bread/toast and a glass of Chianti* wandered into the mix. *I no longer drink, but if it looked like Western civilization was going to collapse, I'd imbibe. |
