Comfort food season is here! And no, I’m not talking about pumpkin spice, although I’m sure I’ll cave soon enough – but let’s start the season with savory favorites.
Soups & Stews
Cheesy Broccoli & Chicken Orzo Soup
Ask my Midwestern husband what he wants for dinner and there’s a very good chance his answer is casserole. Most likely with several different kinds of starchy carbs.
Cozy Mushroom Barley Soup
It feels good to end the year on a humble note. Simple earthy flavors that are cozy and comforting are a good way to say hello to new adventures in a new year.
Comfort Chili with Cornbread Pudding
Chili was our annual pre-trick-or-treating dinner as a child, and it’s a tradition I’m happy to keep going today! There’s few things that are quite as comforting as hot, thick chili topped with lots of sour cream.
Butternut Apple Coconut Soup with Roasted Butternut Seeds
It’s like Colorado heard it’s officially autumn and flipped seasons overnight! This weekend was cold, drizzly, and absolutely perfect for curling up on the couch with a blanket.
Colorado Pork Green Chile
If you’ve visited Colorado, you might have seen green chile on almost every menu in some form or another. Green chile stew trades tomatoes for tomatillos and beef for shredded pork, all slow-simmered and loaded with freshly roasted green chiles.
Lazy Wonton Soup
Lazy wonton soup: for when you don’t want to spend money on takeout, but you don’t want to spend time making dumplings. Wonton-filling meatballs and wonton wrapper noodles is the easy solution!
Southwest Roasted Corn Chowder
It’s getting cold cold here lately, the kind that makes you want to curl up under a blanket with a big mug of soup – this is the right choice for dreary Mondays. Creamy and sweet but packed with veggies, this roasted corn chowder combines southwest flair with lots of filling power!
Sweet Potato Coconut Crab Soup
I’m bringing you a creamy, slightly-sweet, gorgeous orange soup that’s perfect for fall – and we’re not even talking about pumpkins! Yet.
Classic Miso Soup
Miso soup has the same soul-warming, ill-curing magic as chicken soup. There’s nothing too special about the separate ingredients, but when they come together it’s perfectly comforting.
