Happy November! It”s now officially, official – it”s comfort food time! Dinner salads are out the window and our ovens are cranking up the heat. Here is a weeks worth of comforting and easy dishes to get you through the cold days ahead.
Monday
Quick & Cheesy Chicken Pot Pie
A creamy filling of chicken, veggies and cheese topped with a quick biscuit topping made with homemade baking mix. Depending on the day, we either eat this as a one dish meal or serve it with a simple salad.
Tuesday
Chicken Barley Soup
It”s cold and flu season which means that our consumption of Chicken Noodle Soup goes into overdrive. Ever since we found this recipe we”ve been making it in place of the tradition noodle version. It hits the spot every time. I”ve also switched out the barley with the same amount of uncooked rice and it works great.
Make it even more nutrient rich by making your own Quick and Flavourful Chicken Stock.
Wednesday
Quick Chicken Parmigiana
This is one of my favourite pasta meals. It has such a lovely presentation but is so easy to whip together. Serve with a simple salad to round out the meal.
Thursday
My Favourite Chili
It took me a long time to find my perfect Chili recipe, but I did, and I”ve never looked back. No comfort food week would be complete without a warm bowl of chili. Serve with tortilla chips to scoop, or cornbread to dip.
Friday
(Baked!) Crispy Chicken Sandwiches
Skip the fast food joint and make some Crispy Chicken Burgers at home. This sandwich gets an update with ciabatta rolls, quick aioli and crispy baked chicken breasts that have been marinated in a flavourful sour cream marinade. Serve with fries or a salad.
