Comfort foods are kind of hard to define, but you know it when you see it. These recipes are easy to make, but provide a lot of satisfaction. They include foods like macaroni and cheese, rice pudding, grilled cheese sandwiches, and pot pies: foods that are simple but delicious. Comfort foods keep you warm inside and out. They are the foods you want to eat when you've had a hard day, when the weather is brutal, or when you need soothing. Everyone's favorite comfort food may be a little bit different, but they all have one thing in common: we crave them.

These delicious recipes include rice pudding, a wonderful baked grilled cheese sandwich, crockpot chili, a warm cheese dip, and some super quick and easy doughnuts.
2. Five Ingredient Comfort Foods
Linda Larsen
I'd have to say that Creamy Italian Chicken is one of my all-time favorite comfort foods. And it's so easy to make! Just five ingredients plus your crockpot transform your home into the coziest place on earth. But don't ignore Old Fashioned Goulash or Chewy Gooey Bars!
3. Top 5 Mac and Cheese Recipes
Linda Larsen
Macaroni and cheese has to be the most comforting food of all. Tender macaroni is enveloped in a creamy, rich, melty cheese sauce and served as-is or baked with a crunchy bread topping. Dive in!
4. Easy Comfort Foods

And this collection of comfort foods includes some of the earliest recipes I ever made or read about. Mrs. Coverlet's Bread Pudding is a special favorite here, as is Danish Puff Coffee Cake and Alpine Meatballs.
5. Crockpot Comfort Foods
Linda Larsen
What could make comfort foods even more comforting? Cooking them in the crockpot! Very little effort is needed to make these homey and delicious recipes. The only thing better would be to employ a butler and a cook - but that wouldn't be very comforting, because you'd then have to worry about payroll and employee benefits.
6. Risotto Recipes
Linda Larsen
Risotto, or a creamy and warm mixture made from slowly cooked rice, lots of cheese, and delicious add-ins like onion, peas, chicken, and mushrooms, is one of the original comfort foods.
7. My Favorite Chocolate Recipes
