10 Best Comfort Food Recipes

These 10 best comfort food recipes each make a cozy meal to nourish you regardless of whether it’s a cold weather day or you’re simply needing nourishing any time of year.

1. Easy Ground Beef Casserole 

Cheesy casseroles with ground beef

We adore cheesy casseroles as a hearty meal that’s wonderfully comforting, and this easy ground beef casserole is perfectly meaty and cheesy.

To make the simple recipe, ground beef is fried, along with onion and garlic, until golden brown, broccoli is added for some healthy green vegetables and then it’s all baked in a creamy sauce combination of heavy cream, sour cream and plenty of grated cheddar cheese.

The dish combines together some of our favorite comfort foods to create a marvellous main course. 

2. Beef Stew

This hearty stew with beef has only a handful of ingredients, yet creates a warming meal that’s perfect to enjoy through the chillier weather. 

My version of a perfect recipe for stew sees stewing meat browned along with onion and garlic, before being submerged in stock or water and cooked until you have melt in the mouth beef. 

I like to add broccoli for the last half an hour or so cooking time to have perfectly cooked broccoli in a rich and flavorful meaty stew meal.

3. Chicken Broth
