Don't know if this has ever been posted before, but one of the few things besides my fam that I love more than playing outside is comfort food. You know, those sometimes not-so-good-for-you dishes, usually made by a loved one that make you feel all warm and loved inside? You guys got any of those?
My favorite if when my Ma makes pork & rice. She cubes a pork roast or loin and puts it on the stove to simmer in a pot all day in this amazing sweet and spicy sauce that she makes from scratch and guards the recipe with her life. I'll probably never know what she puts in it XD.
Sometimes she adds veggies, some times she doesn't. She always serves it on steamed white rice and it's the most incredible thing in the world. When I was a kid she would make it whenever I was feeling down, or when I was missing my dad, and it never failed to perk me up.
Now she makes it when she knows I'm coming home to visit. I love walking through the door after that long bus ride and getting hit by that cloud of amazing spicy, porky scent.
-
Looks like we're bumping into each other all over this forum :D
One food that never fails to cheer me up is cinnamon rolls. I'm not even entirely sure what makes me so happy when I have them, it just gives me an elated sense of joy.
Another food that will always remind me of a dead family friend is buttered squash. We cooked it on top of his wood heater and it always came out delicious. That wood heater burned hotter than 300 degrees and cooked food just right every time.

Pizza
Sad+2 pizzas eaten=happy!
-
Peanut butter... anything with peanut butter.
-
:D
Hye, we are! My Gran used to make really dank stuffed acorn squash. She'd fill it with sausage, mushroom, onions, cheese and t hen what ever she happened to have on hand. Then she's bake them and I'd be able to eat a whole one just to myself. I love them split open and baked with some butter and brown sugar on top too. Mmmm~
She hasn't made squash in forever, though I think I know what I want for Christmas now.

Oh the list of amazing peanut-buttery things I can think of :o
-
Any pizza that is edible is comfort food!
-
I don't know if it counts but when it comes to drink when I am in need of comfort Hot Chocolate always works
-
Pancakes, always gotta be pancakes! XP
-
Eating the pancakes in the dinnertime period is the bestest.
-
I had them for Breakfast! XD
-
i come to cracker barrel real late and ask ofr pankakes.
it's jsut my thing.
-
Wish there was a place like that near me. :/ I gots to put up with Morrison's pancakes. (still haven't gotten around to learning the recipe)
-
and that is why you look up the recipie
-
But that google task bar is so far away! XP
-
Come on.
Your really THAT lazy?
-
No, not really just thought it would be a funny thing to say. :)
-
Chocolate.
Its almost always chocolate.
-
a bx of chocolates if your best friend when you are sad.
-
It would be subway if the nearest one wasn't a half hour drive away.
-
Wow.
MIGIGAN HAVE MORE SUBWAYS
i think, you live is mighigan, right?
-
Love Subway! :D I have one right outside my college.
-
Whe Way of the subs
i always get a tuna olive mayo sandwich because i got that meal always, since i was a kid.
-
Toasted 6" hearty italian with cheese, Meatballs and ketchup! So messy, but so good! ^_^
-
Cubasa

And we definitely need more Subway restaurants here.
-
Have you been to Cracker Barrel
They make the comfort food pankakaes that i order during dinnertime.
-
Never heard of the Cracker Barrel.
-
go google it thae mke like country food and stuffs.
-
I know how to make country food though.
I was taught how by a family friend.
-
I like jsut the TONS OF PANCKAKES i ca have.
-
If you haven't used milk in pancake mix, you're doing it wrong.
When mixed with milk they're light, fluffy, and don't burn.
-
I DO stick milkin the mix, accually.
I had some gosh-darn-good poppy seed cake.
-
Most people I know use water.
Then when I tell them I use milk they look at me as if I'm weird.
-
Huh. never heard of people using water. They are the weirdones.
-
It actually says on the box to use water.
-
Everyone Has there Way of cooking it I guess. I know that I would use water
-
Never heard of the Cracker Barrel.
*Whole world come to a screeching halt*

Also, icecream...who says that chick-flicks and a gallon of icecream is only for women!?
-
We don't have a "Cracker Barrel" over here. :P
Applez! :|
-
For the record "Cracker Barrel" is more than a restaurant. Back in the wild west It was also the name for any snack-ish food they wuold eat before bed.
-
Yep.
name got a history.
-
Also for the record cowboys never just sat around a campfire at night. They would only cook on it and sit a bit away from it so there eyes could be adjusted to the dark in case they got jumped
-
YOu got your history nailed down, man!
I like cereal.
-
I know lots of random facts.
Also I would say Oreos would be a comfort food of mine
-
That's some good stuff
Fritos.
Have not had them isn a while.
-
I love my father's special Holiday ribeye roasts that he makes on Xmas, Thanksgiving, Easter and 4th of July.
24 lbs. of exceptional bliss and deliciousness (all on ONE slab with the bone).
-
Mauth jsut waters think'in about meat.
Meat! More comfort Food!@
-
My favorite meat is Kangaroo
-
You guys should try my father's special BBQ pork. He spent several years developing a new type of BBQ sauce (of which only HE knows the full recipe) and uses the most prime rib-tip cuts and cooks it to epic perfection. It's a serious artery clogger, but once you have one, you'll be addicted and can never enjoy BBQ pork from anywhere else ever again.
-
Man.
JHsut making me giggle and i'm looking at my curent crappy cereal i'm eating.

i just added a new thread for making better your "plain" food.
-
Sounds like a good idea.
Like lots of Mountain dew as a dcomfort food.
-
it's not the healthiest, but recently, I've gone back to eating corned beef hash cooked simultaneously with 2 eggs, fried to just crispy. put into a plate, and use a spoon to scoop into bread as a sandwich.
-
oh my.
sounds awesome.
-
oh my.
sounds awesome.
i eat it once a day, everyday.

That does sound just heavenly
-
it is. worth just having even once, but i can't guarantee you won't get addicted, too.
-
Mom's vegetable soup or cabbage stew ;__;

Lots and lots of pankakes were ate today with my hands at cracker barrel.

Forgot to take a picture of it, but i made Rib-Eye steak tonight. And it's truly the best comfort food of all time.
-
^oh you are making me hungry^
-
my house smells of ribeye since i finished cooking it, even the bedroom.
-
That is like a dream come true for me
-
well, the smell's gone, now. enjoyed it while it lasted. idk about you guys, but when it comes to steaks, I either put in a little seasoning or none at all because I LOVE the natural flavors from a properly cooked piece of beef.
-
Fried chicken and pankakes.

SPAAAAAAAAMMMMM
It must be because I grew up with it, but I have a weakness for spam. I love cooking up some tortillas and sticking spam in them~ Sure its not the healthiest thing ever, but it just tastes so goood~
-
I personally like to slice up my spam (once vertical and all across) and fry it up with scrambled eggs (3 to4 eggs with 1/2 a can of spam).
basically, scramble eggs, slice spam, place spam on skillet then pour eggs onto spam after flipping spam when first side is done cooking.
flip once more after that side is done (don't worry about breaking the eggs), and cook for 5 more seconds before turning off the fire.
Been a favourite, lazy dish for years.
-
In the absence of Ben&Jerry's, Just chocolate and Ice-cream... especially kit-kats
Kit-Kat Chunky and Tea...

-
Chips and salsa!
-
Have I said Peanut butter? Because that always makes me feel better
-
Why peanut butter? Get the Smucker's Peanut Butter/Jelly jar that has a mix of both. Now THAT makes anyone feel better.

I still enjoy a mountain of pancake. <.< >.>

Pizza...lots and lots of pizza

Not just any pizza. The bacon pizza from my local pizza place just smothers their pizzas with so much bacon that you pretty can't see the cheese (but there's a good layer of it, you just can't really see it).

all food is best food.
I second this idea
-
My favorite comfort food has always been tempura mushrooms(preferably shitake or monterey; the latter mostly because it's easier to find fresh here). Sometimes with a cheese or sesame sauce, but I prefer them plain because the juiciness.
